A shorter length will unwind faster and give more power. A longer rubber motor can be wound more. The longer motor gives more time, but a little less power. A larger prop will also spin slower with a given rubber motor. So going from a 5 inch to a 6 inch prop slows down the rate of climb and speed. |

Good flight and pics. I haven't tried flying since I was a kid, so a question if I may: Do you get more power or more time from the extra rubber? Or both? |

Using 60 inches of 3/32 tan rubber, two 15 inch loops with 6 inch plastic prop. |

Yes, it came with a short loop of 1/4 inch wide tan colored rubber. It climbs very fast and pulls to the left with the kits 5 inch prop. I went as high as 80 turns, only a few seconds in the air. I fly the 900 series Mustang and Skyraider with 60 inches of 3/32 rubber and 6 inch props. My next move is to the 3/32 rubber, 60 inches or two 15 inch loops. I will stay with the 5 inch prop for starters and move on from there. |

Nice. I believe it's a flier. Looking forward to some in flight pictures.
