Default RE: RCV .91 CD & Matching prop?

G'day

I used to have an RCV CD 91. It was a good engine. I put it in a large 60 size trainer to give it some air time and it really hauled the big trainer around extremely well. I am pretty sure I had a Master Airscrew 14 x 6 on it. It was an amazing sounding engine in the air. It sounded like a big four stroke motor cycle

I initially ran it on a "four stroke fuel" which had only synthetic oil in it and it was not very happy with this so I went to my usual 5% castor, 15% synthetic, 10% nitro, 70% methanol mixture and it was much happier.

I did not go ahead with the plane I bought it for and so a friend has it now and is going to put it in a 60 size warbird eventually.
