In anticipation of a change of Light Sport rules in the U.S., what is the in-flight variable pitch/constant speed propeller of choice for those that are currently flying 912iS engines?

I believe the best is the New Zealand made Airmaster propeller that is purpose designed for the 912. I have one installed but not flown yet. The quality of the product is wonderful. Not cheap!
I was told all sorts of tales as why a CS prop was overkill on such a small engine. I took the opposite view: with only 100 horses, I want them working hard all the time........

I do not have an Airmaster, I have another brand which is good but I cannot recommend for serviceability reasons. However I agree with Geoffrey they are very good and well liked by the users. Also a VP prop is definitely helpful !
Also Europe has had VP for years there are probably good options there as well.
