Default RE: Engine for H9 Funtana

ORIGINAL: CrashBurn69

I just picked up an OS 61 FX for mine, but it feels almost as heavy as the plane. What would be a good slow speed/high thrust prop for that engine on this plane? I was thinking a 10/4 but if anyone has a better idea let me know.
Hey, don't put that 10/4 prop on that engine. It'll blow up. You need a bigger prop like the other dude mentioned. A 10/4 is more for like a 36 sized engine (even a 40 engine would be too big for that prop). I agree that the APC 13-4W or 14-4W would be good on that engine. You want the biggest diameter prop with the lowest pitch that you can get and still clears the ground by 2 inches. Even then, you can get bigger landing gear.
