• 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.

Hi all,


I am building a Starduster TOO and have an IO-540 C4B5 250hp that is going on it. I am looking into my options for props and after getting a quote on a constant speed Hartzell I'm wondering if I should consider a Catto fixed pitch.


I know allot of the RV guys like them and I have seen a couple pics of Skybolts with one but haven't really read any comments on the 540 combination.


Are any of you guys running one on a 540 Duster, Skybolt, or Pitts and care to comment?
