RCV90SP Prop Pitch Selection
I am having a difficult time getting information on prop pitch versus weight of airplane. The airplane is a 1/9 scale B-17G which will probably come out at about 50 - 55 lbs. I am using RCV90Sp's for power. The suggested 3 blade prop for this engine is 15.5x13. The diameter is very close to scale but the issue is what pitch. I have no idea. Will this prop be overkill for a B-17 of this weight. Should I use a different pitch? It will be flying scale speeds so a hot prop for speed isn't necessary.
I would appreciate any input on prop selection for this airplane.
Thanks in advance,
