Teardrop would work but not very well. Now if you make the front side
curved but the back side flat or even slightly cupped you would get more
thrust. With a CNC or a good template it wouldn't be that difficult to make.
So I make the part like you describe above, which I can do, but still
make the blade resemble a ping pong paddle? Or would it be better to
make it look more like a normal prop blade? Since reverse doesn't need
to be very effiecent it seems that might work best. I obviously need
to do some more reading.
