I cut one of the props down,now it's 11X4,i have put it on and started it but that's all i did,it revved up quicker and seemed to run a lot better.Then i tried a prop that was sent to me,a wood Top Flight Power Point 10X6,wanna know what happened ?i started it and i got a rush of air,the engine was running backwards [X(] ,i killed it and restarted it but the same thing happened,backwards and i know it was running backwards cuz the plane had a very nice reverse.

This is gonna open a new can of worms.

Hey man you got waaay to small of a prop on there for one thing!!!!!!!
You said it was a .61 right? 11X7 or 12X6 prop, 13X5 will work too. If you are using the props you mentioned, it could well be starting backwards, among other strange behavior.

Joe L. You know more than you claim, but Power Points are made for both pusher, and tractor applications, last I checked.......
