Default Zenoah G62 with a 24 " prop???

Has anyone tried this G-62 with a 24 X 8 prop combo?
I am currently flying a 28 pound 3rd scale Cub with the Zenoah G-62 and using a 22 X 10 prop. What I am thinking of is trying a longer heavier prop...say a 24 X 8 loading down the motor, with the idea that it will allow keeping the rev's up a bit higher while still keeping the nice scale flight speed quite slow. Also the flywheel effect would tend to keep things running while flying at low motor RPM's. At those prop prices, I want to get a consensus before just running out and buying one.
Thanks for your comments.
