$300- that's what frankly on another note - why the low pitch At this size I would want more pitch (and less rpm) just me daydreamin I am runnin a 30x14 (maybe they stretch the truth ) but terrific noise control and my engine pulls verticals easily with it. for cruise - the throttle is waaaaaaaay back full scale stuf turns much deeper pitches and on these big engines -I really think more pitch is desireable |

Isn't it hard getting decent power out of a 2-stroke at the lower rpm, say 4500 or so? Also, if your idle is still at 1000-1200, a high pitch prop will still pull quite a bit. I think I have a Xoar 36x12 for my Herbie280.

seriously - My 160J on JMB mufflers runs 5900 on the ground - 6600 in level flight and reliable idle (for landing )---- 800 +rpm setting - I checked it last weekend. I have 32x10 paint stirrer- that rips just stirring the paint. The idle setting really surprised me - so I walked over and pluggen in the tach -- The 210's I have run - like to run around 5000-5500 |
