what propeller?
 

hello I have been flying rc for long time but now I got a .32 gasoline motor and I dont know what propeller to use
can someone help me with this?

RE: what propeller?
 

You mean glow and not gasoline, right? :) A lot will depend on the plane and the specific engine, but it would probably be safe to start with something like a 9x6 or a 10x5. A really strong .32 would probably do OK with something as big as a 10x6. Just watch it for signs of overheating and experiment a bit.

RE: what propeller?
 

you mean a .32 glow engine? Or do you mean a 30something CC gasoline engine?

If you mean a .32 glow, then I've run APC 11x4 and APC 10x5 on mine, depending on the airframe. The 11x4 was on a Waco biplane, lots of climb, lower airspeed. The 10x5 was on a small pattern plane with a tuned pipe, and on a combat plane. Mine was an OS .32F

When did you come here? and which event?

RE: what propeller?
 

Tower recommends 18x10 props for the Fuji Imvac 32 cc engine.

RE: what propeller?
 

it wasn't an event, my grandfather lives in monterrey and i visit quite a bit. it's been a while since i've been there. We used to go to the field that's on the way to saltillo.

my first solo was in that field [&:]

RE: what propeller?
 

there are two fields on that way santa catarina and Arrcac.
maybe we meet there

RE: what propeller?
 

okay, it's a field with a paved runway, the train goes by very close, it has tin roof and blue columns. oh and grills.

i'll scan some pictures (they are from when i was a teenager).
