Default Whirlwind 200RV vs M/T prop comparison?

Hi.

I've a MTV-15-B/183-402 on my -7 and like it alot.
It's has those "scimitar-shape" blades which seems to make the plane quiet and the plane performs very well.
It has no RPM-restrictions either.

I'm looking for a prop for my second RV and it's tempting to put on the same prop. I'm also on the fence for the 200RV group buy.

I've searched this forum but so far I've only found the comparison testing beetween the WW and the Hartzell.
Has anyone done any comparison beetween those two props? (performance AND noise)

Thanks.

Default Noone...?

I was hoping that someone had done some testing on these two, but it doesn't seem that way...??

It's almost time for me to make a decition wether or not to join the groupbuy and buy the WW prop.

I'm still hoping anyone would have some real world testdata beetween the M/T prop and the WW?
