Hey guys, Im thinking about getting a DL50 for a Skyshark Christen Eagle. I will have to use a 20 inch prop due to ground clearance. Will that be a problem with this engine, causing it to turn up more than it needs to?
Thanks,
John

John,

You might could try a 20x12... Your Eagle will be fast...

IMO, the bench mark props for the DL50 are Vess 22B, and Vess 23A...

If money is not an issue a nice Biela 21x10 3 Blade prop would work great on the Eagle.

Also, Xoar has nice 3 Bladed Wood props... 21x10 or 20x10 is what to look for.
