Just bought my first SIg 300 Extra and wonder what prop I should use with the OS 160 FX

Thanks

I would ask the guys in the 3D forums..

Copy, and print for your shop.

Roll On 60

Try either the 16X10 or 17X8. Both are good and should give you about 9000-9500 RPM.
BTW the OS 160 is a great engine but it must be run on the rich side and MUST have LARGE fuel lines throughout to include the tank and all fittings.

Cool graph, Jett'.

Everyone I know with a 160fx is running an 18x6 or 18x8, which oddly is out of the range shown in that chart.

Hawker does not know- he only flys park fliers...

Sure, but you haven't lived until you've strapped a 160fx onto a Magic!

Or a slow stick!

The chart is old(er), so maybe it's out of synch for the larger engines.......I just pass along what I find, and I found it on the web- recently.

Do a search here on the OS1.60FX,and on the Extra. Here is a pic of mine on the Sig Extra 300SX. Before you glue the stab, please check the incidence. Mine was off, and I had to sand the forward part of the saddle to get the incidence correct. Very Nice flying plane. I'm using an 18x6 prop. I use a Bisson muffler and a Perry VP 30 pump.

Not everyone Mikey. "Everyone" is not of 3D mentality.
