Default RE: Lanier Yak

The Lanier isn't really a canister friendly design, but an experienced builder could get one a going. Probably something like one of Dick H's channels.

There's bee a good deal of discussion on the 58 on this thread... you might want to some more research on what people are getting with it and with what props.

26x8 or 10 is WAY too much prop for a 60cc engine. And the specs showing a prop range from 22x10 to 26x10 is nuts.

An efficient 24x8 or 10 will most likely be the sweet prop for this engine allowing it to operate in it's optimal power band and giving good spool up.

An 80 spins a 26x10 optimally... and me thinks the 58 has had a little too much Y and E added to their HP (hype).

YMMV...
