Thanks for the replies about props, test pilot flew the plane again this 
morning and the local plane legend was there again as well and everyone agreed 
that the prop needed to be trimmed down and after what a few of the kr netters 
had suggested also, I bit the bullet and trimmed 1/2" off each tip. now my 
static rpm has increased by approx 80 rpm, from 2370 to 2450, not quite as much 
as I had hoped. test pilot will take it for another run tomorrow to check to 
see how much more i will gain in flight. (i hope i don't lose to much on 
performance!)If all goes well, hopefully I will get to take it up myself 
tomorrow as well for the fist time, I did do a couple of runs down the strip 
this morning flying it approx 10' of the runway, love the aileron response just 
need to get used to the elevator, must have been funny to watch when i was 
trying to settle back on with ballooning, over controlling with elevator.
