I know it's a bit late for this reply but I can tell you with almost 100% certainty that you are in stall with that size prop, as other posters suggested.
Without knowing all the specifics of your PMA I made some comparisons to one I made which was similar to yours. In my case the bottom line was, that in star, it was always in stall using a prop of 8 ft. diameter. In order for it to work I had to reconfigure it to delta. In your case that won't work as I strongly suspect your PMA is much to powerful for a prop size of 4+ feet.

If you are limited by your location to that size diameter prop then you will probably need to build another PMA suitable for that size prop.

Speaking from experience,
Hank
