Default RE: HANGER 9 SOPWITH CAMEL

Just a little info on the wood prop, from experience use a fiberglass prop or plastic prop for a while until you get the feel of the plane and get it properly balances. Landing's are tricky with this plane and you will go through a lot of wood props until you get use to landing. I have had mine since they first came out and still nose it over sometimes. It is so short you have to add a lot of nose weight to balance it out, and when it touches down you need to have a lot of up elevator to keep the tail skid planted. The wood prop looks nice on it but to save you a little $ start out with some fiber props until you get the feel of landing it.
