Hopefully inspiration to get the stragglers motivated.

Threw on a Prince prop that I picked up with another airplane I bought.
Thought I'd try it out. Somewhat noisier than the Warp but it did give me
some more performance. Still mystified how Lonnie comes up with Pitch for
these things. Just before I left home I installed one that he supplied for a
150HP Lyco on a customers airplane that was coarser pitched than this one I
have that was running on a strong 160 HP H2AD. Beats me... but it on my 150
HP the prop works pretty good. Could be a little finer to work perfect but
it's good enough AFAIConcerned. Left my RPM #'s on the camp fridge though so
I won't quote anything at this time. All I know for sure is it climbs well
at about 400 to 500 fpm in the configuration noted below with my buddy
along.....and yes with the canoe on the side and everything like gear,
cooler bag etc adding up in the just shy of 2000lb area.

Took myself (currently 220lbs) and my buddy (245 lbs) ..20 gallons of fuel
and the canoe into the middle of BFNW to do some fishing.
