Default RE: super tiger 3250 help

DDD,
Just curious, but do you OWN a ST 3250, (not to be confused with the 3000 you referred to in your post)? The reason I ask is that I have owned both (still have the 3250), and can honestly say that even though they look very similar, they act very different. My 3250 will most definately turn more "lumber" than my old 3000. The other thing I have noted is that the 3250 makes it's maximum torque in the mid 7K range (7K static should allow for a little unload in the air and get him right in that range) and mine seems to pull best when I prop it in that RPM range. Don't get me wrong, my 3250 has certainly presented it's own unique challenges to work through, but IF he was in fact turning the 20 x 10 @ 7K without being overly lean (and I agree, it sounds like he might have been), then I'm just not sure that the prop size is necessarily his only problem. I am not alone there as others I have flowm with have used up to 20" props on their ST 3250's (once they were well broken in).
