Default OS FS-120S-E

Hey guys.

I acquired a 2nd hand Super Skybolt from a guy at the mall show. I bought a NIB OS 120-E for it and proped it with an APC 14x10. I don't really feel when its flying that there is that much power there, maybe a different prop? What would you guys recommend? The plane is 10.5Lbs or so my scale says. It also has 2 batterys with both up front to balance it, one is on the firewall. I am getting 9300-9400RPM with 1 1/2 gallons through the engine. BTW I am running Coolpower 15% (green stuff)

Thanks alot guys!

Shane

You will have to try some different props to find out which one your engine
likes. Try a 14-8 or 14-10 Zinger, and some 20/20 YS-Saito fuel. My 1.20 FS
Magnum runs much better on the 20% nitro.

FBD.

If you have enough ground clearance maybe try a 15x8 or 16x6 APC?
