Hi Bruce,

He said he was using a 17x4W. This is a Wide Blade from APC. It loads up the engine considerably because of the increased blade area.

A jump to an 18x6 is not that much of a load difference from the prop he was using.
The prop specs for the Saito 1.80 engine are: 15x8 - 18x6

Just thought I would chime in...

Bob
