Hi all
Just a quick question. I have a Zen 90 Pattern with an OS 120 Surpass 4 Stroke without a pump. What Prop would i need for this combo.

Several choices; 16X8 for starter then try 16X10, 18X5 and 18X6 to see what gives you the performance you like.

Nice plane!! I have an Excelleron 90 with an OS 1.20 AX two stroke and a Venus II with the same engine. I am swinging a 15-8 on that engine. I also have a 16-8 as a spare that the engine swings nicely. But, I don't know about the four stroke.

I think Rod hit it pretty well with the 15. I was using an OS 1.20 pumper in my 2 meter Ariel and just started prop testing before I changed engines. I started with a 15X8 APC and do to ground clearence at the time 15 was as long as I could go. I found the 15X10 worked the best for me but that about as far as I got with the testing before I installed a YS.
