Will the 60 over rev with the 12x4 APC?

OK Thanks, so Now I have a brand new 12x4 APC prop , can I use it on a 40 engine and have better thrust for a 40 size or a 46 size engine.

It depends on what engine it is. For example a 12X4 might be a little big for a OS 40la but its a great prop for a TT pro46. For 3D I'm partial to the 12.25X3.75 APC though.

[[So the bottom line is the 12x4 APC prop works well with a 46 to 55 size motor and a 60 OS is just to much motor for that size prop]]

yep!

A 12X6 would be a good start for the 60
