Strange as it may sound, I found the landings to be better when I used a 6 inch pitch prop. It allows the plane to slow down better for landings, FWIW.

Never,

I do not know if you noticed that on my profile and video but I too used a 6 pitch prop too. I used and 16x6. I have used a 16x8 and the Gee Bee will want to keep flying.
