I would use a prop with more pitch. Engine is screaming and the “Stinger” is just strolling along. Nice airplane!

I may look into it once I resolve the engine "coughing", I am waiting on a replacement ignition. The "screaming" noise is due to the awful muffler on this early generation engine. The aeroplane speed feels just right to me, it has all the power to conduct all the aerobatics with ease and I don't think it was designed for speed with its very thick wing airfoil.
