Default RE: propeller size versus engine displacement

I prefer the prop chart at http://www.modelflight.com/propch1.html.

After I get close I calculate the volume of air moved in one revolution to determine the volume load. And then use the next up or down volume load to get the top RPM into the fat part of the horsepower curve.
