So i just got my Shockwave 26 brushless and i need some advice. In the first 3 minutes i broke my prop (running 6 cell NiMH). So which prop would be the best replacement for me if im going to be running a 2s 20c 7.4v lipo? Any help appreciated!:beerchug:

Thisis a common problem with those boats. I assume its the stock plastic that broke. There is an upgrade prop for that same size just metal. http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products/Support.aspx?ProdID=PRB3150

Fill out THIS (http://www.horizonhobby.com/Content/PDF/Shockwave_Request.pdf) request form and they should hook you up with the upgrade one for free.

Thats great! Do you know if this prop will come sharpened and balanced?

Since the boats I believe are now being stocked with that prop, one would assume you can run it out of the box, however I would prob sharpen and balance it for better results.
