Default RE: Surpass 52 rev range?

Don't run that engine over 10,000 rpm static as you may float the valves when it unloads in the air and it will be out of its power band. 9,000-10,000 is about right. prop 12/6,12/7, 13/4 etc. I would go with a non wood prop for flywheel weight. Idle will come after proper breakin and tuning. Their is a learning curve with 4 strokes but once set up they run and run. Good luck.
