Good deal! Great work! Don't you just love it when research and hard, careful work come together to create a successful conclusion?

What are you going to put it in? I seem to remember you were using a 16 x 6 prop correct? You might experiment with an 18 x 6 and an 18 x 8 prop. That's a more common size for this engine and you might like it. The 18" prop will provide MUCH more static thrust, and you can choose the pitch depending on the plane and whether you want more speed, or more acceleration/climb. Also, if you were experiencing mid range "burbling", the larger prop will help with that.
