<P>Clearly you have a nice set up. I know that my OS 140 RX will never go over 8000 RPM with 17x13 wide prop. Are you sure that you have a 1.40? Probably you are talking about the OS 160.</P>
<P>I also have a carbon fiber pipe with OS F plug. In fall and spring I use 15% nitro, 18% oil. In summer (humid days) I go to 20% nitro. The plane is a Hydeout. I also have a Focus wiht a Mintor 140 that practically runs exactly like the OS 140 RX. I am running now 3 blade re-pitched props on both planes.</P>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think I have a pretty good setup, pipe, prop, fuel at this time. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It pulls 8100rpm, 17X13 std APC, 15% Cool Power, OS "F" plug, Karl Mueller header, AreoSlave c.f. pipe(3.5 oz proto-type).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This was just last Sunday in 95 degree heat at 675' altitude med to high humidity.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I found with this new pipe I have been trying that I had to richen up the low end and run the high</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My airplane weights 10lbs 4oz. and its a pretty clean aerodynamically. This prop(17x13) may not work on </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>a more dragy airplane then some and I have been using the 17x12 APC std in the past with this engine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am sure on windy days I would have to go to the 3 blade prop or the 17x12. A 17x10 and even the 17x12N is not</FONT></DIV>

<P>Wayne:</P>
<P>Isn't 17x13 too much load for the OS 140 RX? I remember trying that prop last summer. In KC summer is hot and very humid. You can cut the air with a machete. I remember trying the 17x12 Standard with the same problem. The best 2 blade was the 17x10 Standard. Finally, I got the 3 blade re-piched prope from Dave and I love it. I use OS F 20% nitro 18% Syn. oil </P>
