Hi

I have recently bought a brand new JEN .91 two stoke engine. It has been well run in and has been powering my Hanger 9 Pulse XT 60 for about a dozen flights. The power is ok but I think it could do with a tad more. The propeller I am using currently is a 14X6, what propeller do you think I should use to get the maximum power out of the engine?

Thanks

For comparison, I have an OS 91 FX two stroke. It turns 10,500 comfortably rich using a 14x6 APC prop.

Cheers,
Oly

I would like a bit more vertical performance or thrust. What would you recommend?

My Magnum 91 XLS on a Seagull Edge 540 happily turns an APC 15X6. I get around 9300 rpm on 5% Omega.
