Agreed. So get your model trimmed with your rubber, and I will then
mail you a few grams of the rubber I intend to use, 7/97 Tan II. It
should only give you more cruise, and not wreck all your equations.

Your footstooge that holds a prop by its hub, stretched against the
rubber for winding will not work with LPP, of course.

Nothing is too critical with LPP wood, and hobbyshop balsa will work
fine. Even blades can be sanded down from 1/16" as I did for my Open
PP blades.
