Default RE: Is it possible to burn an engine with the wrong size prop?

You know what guys, I apologize.. I thought I was running a 10x4.. Im actually running an 11x4..

Ill just play around and see what I come up with.. Recommened in the book for the engine is 10x7 after break in, so I might as well pick one up and see what happens.. Now, a 10x7 would probably be noticably faster than the 11x4, right?? Since Im new with the plane, should I go with maybe a 10x6 so the speed difference wont make me pinch a loaf in my pants when I come in for a landing?? Or, with landing, prop size really doesnt matter because Im almost to idle anyways??
