Howdy Everyone. I need some assistance in regard to propeller choice from people more experienced than I am on the subject. (Mostly everyone.)
I am building a -7 and just acquired an Aero Sport Power IO375-M1S engine. 8.5-1 compression, non-counterbalance crank, 200 HP @ 2700 RPM. Mounted on the rear case is a PCU5000X prop governor.
I want a CS propeller with focus on long cruise performance. I am building the plane as light as I can build it and understand CG can be an issue with this airframe and composite propellers. Still, I would consider a composite if the advantage was worthy.
What say you?
