DP-A drive, backup prop just one prop?

[JaseBosto]

Hi,
I am wondering, can I get a single propeller to use as an emergency backup prop on my DP-A? If I ever hit something and needed to get back to shore, not even plane off, what would be a good propeller? I would hate to spend hundreds on something I wont really use. If I can get a single prop to use as a backup on my DP-A drive, would I get a left rotation prop to mount on the forward, or a right hand rotation to mount on the aft?

Double prop drive the props are counter rotating So you would need 2 props to cover the drive.
I'm no dual prop expert but perhaps the lead prop would sustain the most damage in a mishap so the lead prop would be best if carrying only one.
