Default Q35?

I just got a used Q35 and had it running tonight. Sounded good and was very easy to operate. I am just starting a 1/4 scale Fokker DR1 and it should end up around 15-16 lbs. Those that have experience with this engine, do you have thoughts on this combo? It is going to fit well, As I want to mount it upright so I can add dummy cylinders under the engine for scale appearance.
I was running an 18-6 APC prop, but would probably go to a Xoar for flying. Not sure if this is the right sized prop or not. It sounded good though. I need to get a muffler as well and was thinking of a Bennett and cutting the stingers down and running flexible pipes down out the bottom of the fuselage. Never routed an exhaust this way, but I am hoping to conceal the engine mostly.
