What about the RCGF 62, Dick? Kind of the same cylinder as the G62, but with a rear carb. Supposed to be stronger.
A G62 likes to spin up so I don't think it would help.

I put a 3 bladed CF 22x10 on a MT 57 and got 4800 rpm. Same prop on a 3W75 6400 rpm, that engine turns a 26x8 6400 rpm also. So I would think the DLE55 would turn a 26x6 about 5000 rpm. I flew my WildHare Ultimate with the 3 bladed prop with the MT57 turning 4800 rpm, it was very WWI scale like flight, great for your use, not so good for 3D. :^(
