Pitts S1S Wood Propeller and C&G

[RWildcat]

Hi,

Im planning on buying a new propeller for my stock Pitts S1S, 180HP and Sensenich 76EM8-0-62 propeller.

How do you Pitts S1S owners manage to keep the C&G in the envelope with a ligher prop? Change battery and placement?

Im thinking of a Hercules Aerobatic Propeller or a MT 186R-160, both weights in at 5,5kg (12 lbs) compared to 15,6kg (34,5 lbs) for the Sensenich prop.


Thanks for any advice
