if you have a 110 HP 2850 William Wynne Corvair engine in a Sonex, what would be the recommended diameter/pitch? How about pitch with extended gear legs allowing up to 60” diameter?
Thanks for any input,

I have the same engine. Dan at Sport Performance Aviation LLC recommended 54"- 56" pitch for use on a standard gear length A model. Not sure if that changes if intending to use a longer prop. I suggest you contact SPA for further discussion.
