• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Hello Guys!

So whats the thinking on Props for competitions , Standard and Intermediate.

Do you want a fine one that pulls at slow speed towards the top of vertical lines , or a coarse one that will keep pulling on the high speed lines before the vertical??

I hear of guys un UK running 62" pitch on 180 hp and say its transforms it, but then the flight manual specifies 56" to 60" ??

Or does everbody just rev to 3000??
