Saito 82 and Cap 232 and Prop Size
I'm about finished with my World Models Cap 232 40 size.I'm putting a new Saito 82 in her. This is the first 82 I've owned. I need some prop advice. What would be a good all around prop for this engine in the Cap. All I've read is that the 14x4 is the way to go. But I'm not too sure in this bird. Thanks

RE: Saito 82 and Cap 232 and Prop Size
If your aileron control surfaces are close to "scale" size as opposed to 3D slabs, I would put a 14x6 prop on it. If the CAP is a 3D version then the 14x4. I'm running a 13x7 on a Venus which weighs 5 pounds and is supposed to fly fast. Your CAP doesn't need to fly as fast, hense the 14x6. Your elevation at 835 feet will allow powerful engine performance!
