Default Rcgf 10cc rpm data

Not much data on this engine yet.
Please post your figures here to share. Video and pics would be great too.
List fuel and oil used , mix ratio,spark plug,gap and or a glow gas plug if using one.
Prop make and size as well, of course along with rpm, and thrust if possible.

Oohh and the plane that its hauling around if applicable.

Mine is on its way,will post some data as time permits.

Ran up the engine today. Had a leaking fuel pump last weekend and rcgfusa replaced it asap.
Also found out that the rcxcel tach does not work with the new rcgf ignitions.

Fuel is Shell mid grade,Stihl ultra HD oil mixed 30:1.
Stock plug.
13x6 apc prop I got 10000 rpm on the fourth run of the engine.
Outside temp ,55 degrees fahrenheit.

No thrust data ,seems to pull well though. I need to get me a fish scale. Lol
Have a Xoar 14x6 pja on its way.

Mine is mounted on a Sig LT 40, the green one. On 93 octane ethanol free it turns a Xoar 13 x 7 at 9,330 rpm. Lube mixed at 40 to 1.

The APC performance chart for the 13x6 prop at 10,000 rpm shows 0.828 hp and 7.9 pounds of thrust... see below:
