RE: Don Smith B29
I have a Smith B-17 with saito .91's. I have flown off a paved taxi way several times and had no problems with the plane staying in place when idling. I am using 14x7 three bladed props. I do have 111 flights on the plane and my engines idle very low and reliable. I also do not use a glow driver. I do not have brakes either.
