Default Need Help !!



I'm a fuel Guy that recently acquired a Electric Citrabia from an estate. The problem is that it has a Glow prop 8x6 that taxis around great but does not have enough to get it airborn. Looks to me that the prop is too heavy? Ground clearance appears adequate for a 9" prop maybe even a 10". Battery tests good (Nimh). Can you help me with prop suggestions , p/n's? I live in Corpus Christi Texas and the closest Hobby shop is 30+ miles away.

Here's the particulars: It's a Citabria ARF ( unknown Manufacturer See attached Pic) 47" W.S. , 8 cell battery pack (AA size, tests okay). motor = modelsport Speed Machine Max 480 p/n22908. It has gear reduction (looks to be 4:1)

Thanks, Bob Schultz [email protected]
