If it were me I'd use 13x8 3 blade. Possibly 13-6

Well. my awesome wife helped me move the giant B-17G fuselage into the house last night!!! She is just wonderful. On the down side, I really hurt my back and hamstring playing with my daughter in the pool... So since I can't just run around and work, I have been doing research and measurements for the scale interiors, and then ordering all the details from Motion and other sources... Ordered 8 meters of 10 gauge wire, of each color, today... Lots to do!!! That is overkill, but I don't want to run out of the big wires... Pics to follow...

From everything stated, your getting there but it seems like your under proping the motors. I would expect a bit higher amp draw at WoT. After test flying my CZ T-28 with the 500Kv Power 60 that comes stock, I switched to an MA 16x10 Beechwood two blade prop. I’m right around 13lbs on that airframe and it rips with lots of extra power. I use a 6s 8000mAh battery and come in at 80Amp at WoT.
Do do you have any way to test how many pounds of force your developing on the 13x8’s...?
