Default RE: Tiger 60 2nd plane material?

Second plane ????

Heck, how about FIRST plane. It's that steady.

Matter of fact, it's so hard to "tip stall" that it actually is hard to get to snap roll. And I've seen one fly on an OS75AX. Matter of fact, I see one fly all the time. Almost every time I go flying.

That 75 on my Tiger60 has a number of favorite props. I'm partial to 3 bladers because when they suit the engine/plane, they're often really good. Both the Master Airscrew 12x8(3) and the 12x6(3) do very well. For 2bladers, just about any 14x6 works good. The really clean looking Evolution 14x6 seems to maybe give the best all round performance of the 2 bladers, but truth is, the 3 bladers just seem to have an edge. It's probably from nothing more that suiting the rpm just a touch better. As it is, I've been meaning to try a slightly cut down 12x8(3) to see if that might not be the perfect setup, but got no real push to do it as the engine does so good with what comes straight from the factory.
