Zenith 601 XL canopy opened during the flight

Has anyone had the canopy of 601 XL open during the flight ??

Popeller pitch and size

What is the best propeller to put on ch701 with jabiru 2200 engine ??? What should the rev-counter read at full throttle when taking off and climbing ??? I can only get to 2600 rpm maximum throttle which I think is not enough. Any information will be appreciated.
