I've got a trimmed down 10-6 tornado, a master airscrew 10-6 and 11-5, an APC 10-6 and 11-4...I haven't tried the larger diameter props....just guessing at this point, please help !! - dave

Master Airscrew 9.5x6 is the prop for a Fox .35

10x6 will work as will 10x5, but the 9.5 works very well.

Good question...
Fox says 10x6
http://www.foxmanufacturing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=157&products_id=272
which is what I have on mine now, sorta. The tips grounded and it is now more like a 9x6.

I have read about 10x5 and 10x4, as well as 9x6,9x5, 9x4.

I have also read about swinging 12 inch props on it.

I'm not very helpful, but I am looking for a similar question answered.

I have a Fox 35 in a 57 Nobler. The plans/instuctions say to use a 10x6 Top Flite. I use a 10x6 Hawk and it works great.

I suggested the 9.5x6 as it was what was suggested I use by the Philly Fliers which are a known bunch of Fox users. I have had good runs using it.

In the end it really comes down to experimentation and what works best for your airframe.

The 9.5x6 allows to Fox to spin up a bit more and really helps on level laps gearing up for a stunt. Especially if you do a 4-2 type run.

I usually start with a 10x6 and may go to a 9.5x6,
With my Nobler's I always go 10x6. I was using the 9.5x6 on my ringmasters and Super Clowns, but my LHS never has them and so I have gone to using the APC 10x6 on those and I really feel like thru turn up good esp at the top of the circle.

It seems most people for CL use 10 X 6 or thereabout, but let mine in FF models rev and use an APC or Windsor 9 X 6.
