I would think 24's would be way to much RPM...

26P Bravo 1's will maintain about the same rpm as your 27 Mirage Plus's do. You will gain plane ability. You will gain cruise speed. You will lose top speed unless Labbed which will keep the speed about the same.

In order to gain everywhere except planing, concider 28P Bravo 1 4BL's Lab Finished. You will gain cruise speed and a small amount on top (1-2 mph).

You need to run at at least 5200 RPM if not 5300. This should be were your peak HP is produced. So if you wanted a 3B I would say take an inch of pitch out of the props for 200 RPM and lab finish or another 200 RPM-250 putting you at 5300-5400 RPM. Or you could run 24P Bravo I props and this should put you at 5300 RPM. Or work a 26P Bravo baseline it and then look at blueprinting.
