Scott,

 

A Sensenich 73 inch long 46 pitch may be a good climb prop on a C-85.

 

My McCauley 7146 was an extreme climb prop, right at the edge of the allowed
static rpm and I could always climb to 12,500' even though it still took
quite a while to get up there.  But I didn't need to fear the 1800' grass
runways that abound in the Central States since I was generally off the
ground by 1,000'.  Note that getting over 50'-75' trees requires more
distance.

 

Please post your performance with that prop, sometime.

 

Ed
