Default 14-8 Three blade counter-rotate ?

Hey guys, building a 100" Goose and instead of 120s Im going electric for the 1st time???? So I would like to reverse the polarity on the 1 motor. My question is... Is a pusher turned around what I need or would that not work? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

Gregg:

You've got it. A "Pusher" prop on a reversed engine or motor becomes a tractor prop.

Mumtaz, the goose is about 21-22 lbs. The plane flys GREAT on 91s... What do you think?
