<p>Hi Greg, I looked at the 75inch prop option but was worried with ground clearance as I use mainly grass runways. I have ordered the 70 inch for my 701, Roger at Zenith advised me that 70 inch would be ok to use,usually the 68 inch is the most common used size.</p>
<p>If you worried about clearance Whirlwind can factory cut the prop down for you to 73 inch. Just a thought as 75 inch is big.</p>
<p>Also double check if you need to order the prop spacer 4 inch, this you would need to order…</p>
