RE: Four-Star 40 ARF Complete!!!
Body Pilot, you will find your combination of plane and engine to be about perfect. This plane is a Bruce Tharpe design back when he worked at SIG, and one of he things that make this an exceptional design is the very broad flight envelope it has. Sure, it will scoot along with the other planes, however, it also has terrific slow flight ability. If you haven't done much slow flight you have a real treat in store. 3D planes do slow flight by flying on the prop (so does that then become a rotary wing - don't get me started), but this plane will fly slow on the wing. Suggest a 11X6 APC prop, then, if you want slower speed with higher torque performance, go to a lower pitch like 11.5X4. Experiment, see what you like best
