G75 for speed use
Hi,
I have installed a G75 in a F14 Thomcat from Greatplanes. Wich prop should be the best for this config ?
I'm now using a 11x7 but the plane is not performing so fast.
Thanks,
Bernard

RE: G75 for speed use
An 11 x 7 prop would be considered a bit small for the SuperTigre G-75. For more airspeed, you may wish to try an 11 x 8 propeller. To get speed, you need to have high RPM and high pitch. This means smaller-diameter props that have high pitch. Of course, high RPM means shortened engine life. You'll have to work with different props to determine which one give your model the performance you're looking for.
