Sounds good,you could try a Zinger 17X5. I cut mine down to 16.5X5 & taper the tips just like APC. The CG can go back to 6" or a little more but fly it at 5 at least for a while to get use to it. I put my receiver&battery behind the wing to get CG near 6" without tail weight,had to cut a hatch on the bottom to do this. Mine was under 8.5 lbs and had good pullout from hovers,not rocket thrust but good. The Zinger 17X5 seemed the best for instant spool-up and keeping the speed down.
