Running a Bolly 19x6. My first two ran at 9300 rpms with no modifications. But after they had moved there production to another facility Ive had to cut them down to 18.5" and get 8700 rpms.

Even though, this is my favorite prop for the 140. They have a fast spool up, pull great, and good down line braking.

Just looked at the Bolly website and see they are no longer making the props. Time to go look and see what vendors have left in stock.

Cheers,
Chris

I think he's gonna want a shallow pitch with the profile 3D MOJO...I'm flying a MOJO 65" with a Saito 150 with an APC 18X6W at about 8800...I would think your YS would be stronger but I'll bet you'd like that prop.
