G20 prop size
Anybody running a g20 in anything close to a Hangar9 P-47...? I'm just waiting for my 3.7 lipo's, but anyway, I'm trying to decide what prop to run. Any suggestions...?

RE: G20 prop size
i have an old g-22 converted to e.i. by ralph cunningham.
heres what he sent back with it.
18-6 7,700 should increase a few hundred when the ring seats. this is the older version with the narrow transfers, the latter version will turn the same prop 8,000 on the ground.
when we first ran it after the conversion it turned a 16-8 8,700
now it has a zinger 16-6 4-blade, don't know what it turns it because the tach won't read a 4-blade. but it turns the crap out of it.

Thanks, I have a apc 16x8 I was gonna give a try. I think it will be a safe starting point. I have read alot of 16x8 being used with the g20's.

38, Tom you lost me. The 15 x 6 is good. Why delete...? Are you saying this question has come up 500 times..? I apologize if so, it's my first gasser.
