Status: offline 		Hello!
Ran this engine ten years ago in "Sting pylon" in sweden and used APC 7x5 props on it. expect 12000-13000rpm using 20% castor oil and 5% nitro.
This 7x5 APC prop was perfect for our small 80cm span airplanes weighting around 550g, giving us speeds up to 120km/h.
For sport flying you could also try a APC 8x4
This engine has a lapped steel piston running in a
"mechanite" steel cylinder and just one ballbearing. It is not as powerfull as the
OS FP.10 ABN engine but it works ok!
Regards!

Status: offline 		JAKA: I took the engine apart to inspect it before I ran it, bcause it acted like a abc engine real tight at the top. The piston looked like it was aluminum- not positive. Did they make a ABC version??? Thanks, John P. S. I sure would like to see a picture of the planes you are talking about. Would that be the size of a ACE Pacer?
