Hello Jim,

Thanks for the reply. Originally I had a master airscrew and I replaced it with the apc. How do you run a 12x4 on yours if it is a standard design? There is not enough clerance... Or you raised the engine as well? By how much, and how did you modify the enginemount to add moew downthrust?

Thanks, Ox.

Engine load wise, a 10 X 8 is about right for the 50SX. I run a 12 x 4 on mine, which is about the same prop loading.

On the engine not a North Star, I assume.
