Default RE: OS 91FX target RPM?

We normally prop the .91 FX for about 9,000 RPM on the ground when leaned to just rich of peak RPM. You can prop the engine to turn as high as the mid-11,000's. Of course you get more noise.

For around 9,000 RPM, one of the 15 x 8 props will work. To get nearer 11,500, you can go with a 13 x 7 or 8 or a 12 x 9.
