Default RE: DA-50 Long Idle Down Problem

You are too lean on the low end and that prop is a bit too big to be using on the engine just yet. You should only switch to the 23 inch props after 5 or 6 gallons
I was really worried you were going to say that. I guess I have to decide what to do. It runs so perfect.....and transitions are awesome. I know if I richen it up it will idle no problem, but it will not transition as well and will "load-up" a little in certain manuvers. I have already been there with this engine during my set-up.

The 23 x 8 is too big? This is the prop DA sold me with the engine brand new. What should I be running?

Thanks for the info Bubbagates!
