What are the best props to run on these engines on a twin engine planes that weights 5.5 pounds. The wing span on this plane is 46 inches

Thanks Bob

That makes perfect sense, I have picture somewhere of one of mine turning an 8x6 three blade at about 11,400, too fast to suit me. This is where my .30's are going when I can afford the plane.

I have ran these with a 9x6 single on the test stand and they turned back door of 12,000, as you say way to fast
