RE: OS 55ax
That's the perfect prop for a Fox Eagle IV .74.
I've seen a lot of changes over the years, but seeing forty sized crankcase engines (regardless of displacement) swinging such large props still amazes me.
No, I'm not being critical of anyone choosing to use these props since it is obvious that the engines are handling it well.
In the meantime, I'll still being using 11x6 to 10x7 props on such engines. Old habits are hard to break - plus I love the sound of a screaming two-stroke. Up until they escort me off the field. <G>
