Did this thread die? I haven't had any chances to fly mine in the past few weeks. I'm hoping for some time possibly this next weekend.

I'm selling mine or at least trying too! If is doesn't sell then it will be wall art until I get the funds to maybe convert it over to electric.

No! Decided to go with a different airframe that I plan on using possibly for IMAC.

I have a OS GT-33 mounted on my slick. This is my first gas engine and the manual calls for a 18x8 prop for break-in. I have had some people in the club tell me that I should break it in with the prop I will be flying after break-in. I am looking for some opinions and experienced answers on this.

Thanks

I would go ahead and put a protek R?C 19x8 prop on there and enjoy the heck out of it.

closest thing ever to electric motor response from a gas engine there is.

its an electric prop but since you dont have to drill the hub for the OS it works great.... oh yeah no prop bushing required either.

dont forget a fast throttle servo so you can take advantage of the super throttle response.
