Hi Garf,
I have good success using APC 12.25x3.75 on the LA 46. Give it a shot.

If it didn't weigh so much, I might try it.

Yup. I use the same prop for ST 51. To me it is a magic prop for them. :wub: :wub:

I did well at the KOI, but i'm not happy with the controls. I freed up the flap hinges, touched up the paint, and retaped the flap hinge gap. Lets see how much that helps if any.

The work helped quite a bit, but the plane takes some getting used to. Lets see if it lasts long enough.

Latest prop is the XOAR 12 X 4.

I put up 6 flights on it today. It feels clumsy compared to the NoblARF's. Fuel tank solder joint failed on uniflo tube.

Replaced the tank, put up 3 more flights and ended with a yard dart. Thanks to soft ground, only had a broken prop. Posted Image

The prop I ended up with is the XOAR 12-4. It works really well.

I finally planted this thing. Broken spar, broken leading edge. Both under the fuselage. Fuselage cracked on top just aft of the doublers.
