Printed and tested this on a 1000KV brushless motor connected to a 3S battery. Stock propeller could generate around 750g (that's grams) of thrust while this only managed to generate around 600g. The _allungato version should have more surface area and thus generate more thrust although I haven't explicitly measured it yet.
I recommend printing and using this propeller to newbies trying to learn. On your first few flights you'll break countless of those and being able to cheaply produce them with your 3d printer makes it slightly less disappointing when your plane inevitably crashes in the ground.
PS: according to your slicer settings and the amount of support you print this with, the propeller may come out slightly unbalanced. Simply search on youtube how to balance a propeller and you should get it perfect in no more than 15 minutes.
Drop me a comment if you have any questions.
