Campbell) Subject: Props Well, the check is in the mail and I've started assembling tools so I guess I'm officially a C4 builder. I have a question regarding engines and props. I am - as they say at universities - gravitationally enriched. As such I have less concern about the back of the CG envelope as the front. Nat mentioned that a few builders are putting IO-360s into the planes which add about 30 lbs in the rear, and 20 hp. The question is whether anyone is putting a constant speed prop on the plane. I noticed the Velocity uses a fixed pitch too. Is there a reason that canards don't use them? Steve (the table is HOW long?????) Campbell
