Default RE: Another Brillelli Masterpiece - Briggs 34cc Four Stroke

Here are some results with different props. Note: I guess I wasn't paying attention when I ordered the Zinger props because I got some Zinger Pro props when I thought I ordered the regular Zingers. However, this may turn out be a good thing!

Zinger 20x8 (Regular) 6000 RPM Same as before.
Top Flite 22x6-10 4900 RPM The engine didn't like this prop (it was on the road to overheating). It was too much of a load.
Zinger Pro 20x8 6300 RPM Very nice. This will probably be my prop choice for first flight.
Zinger Pro 22x8 5300-5400 RPM Didn't seem to be overloaded (no overheating), but the RPM drop was more than I would like. I may try
it in the air after initial flights.

It seems to me that the Briggs doesn't have the torque of the Fuji but will out-perform it when allowed to rev up a little more.
