What size prop you guys run on a G-23 for scale flying. The manual says 15-8 but I have always ran 16-8. I never tried anything else. Do you think I'm over propping it any?

I just sold one of the best running G-23's I've ever seen. It would turn over 9K on an APC 16x8 prop and about 8500 rpm on a 17x8 APC. I don't think you are over propping.

Try an 18-6 for less rpm but more thrust....
