Hi N: Nice work, Try the prop MotoCalc recommends. Your power system will handle it fine and pick up a prop in the 9" dia range also.
I like to keep the airspeed down on small planes but some guys rip around so fast I can lose track of the plane. Based on your glow experience I think you will be impressed with the performance the "e" system delivers. Give us a flight report! Eric |
