Re: McCauley prop c85
The model (1A90-CF) is very common. Your pitch (42) on the other hand, is very fine. This would be an extreme climb prop. (46 is considered "normal" climb for a land plane.) Is your plane on floats? Have you checked that it meets the static RPM requirements?

Re: McCauley prop c85
yes it is floatplane but on wheels now. I'm looking for more speed if anyone has a cruise prop for sale. I don't want to re-pitch this one, its great for short strips.
