Default RE: Overproping a four stroke

RC, I have run a MA three blade 16x8 with one half inch cut off the tips, it turned in the 9,200 rpm range. My Saito 150 is an early high compression one. The high compression has never been a problem, but it commands respect. It will actually run on 5% nitro very well. But, I run it on 15% mostly.
