I thought the same, but it doesn't appear to be the case, at least not
with 4 cylinder engines. I've read that the 3 blade props seem more
compatible with 6 bangers. Supposedly, this is related to power pulses

I guess that makes sense.

It would seem logical that a third power-producing blade would be superior.

Otherwise why would any planes have more than two blades?
