ARF Flite Streak prop?

I scored an ARF Flite Streak kit at the Golden State Championships a year ago ($30!
), and am assembling it as an electric. Motor is a Turnigy AS-3 35-36 -1050. I am thinking an APC electric 10x6 or 10x7 prop. Does that sound about right?

Actually, my question was not complete. I should have also asked what lines and battery to use as they all inter-relate.
Thanks for the input so far.

I'm guessing four cells if you use the 9-4.5. I don't know what the motor's capable of, though.
On slime, it flies great with a 1/4-28 prop nut that's followed by an APC 9x4 sport prop that's followed by an OS 20FP.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

Pat Johnston reports that he has been using a 4s 1550mah battery and a 10x6e on his 28oz Shark 402 which is Flite Streak sized.

I flew it today with an APC 9X6 EP prop on 52’ .012 lines. Performance was marginal. Will try a Master Airscrew 10x6 p prop next. Plenty of power margin on the 2200 3s battery so far. 2 minute flight used 23% capacity.
Thanks for all your input!

On 50ft. lines, the plane is flying great with this prop. Power consumption is about 250 Watts.
Weight with a 3200 mAh 3S is 30 ounces.

Here's an old video of a Electric Flite Streak with an E-flite Power 10 (1100Kv), and I believe it was 3 cell, and APC 9x6E on 60' lines
