What does everyonething about running the grimracer l40 x 57 prop on a stock stiletto ? i tried the 40 x 52 and seemed to make no difference im hoping this will change that i will then likely change the esc too

L40/57 won't work well. It's a lifter prop for hydros or riggers

what would be the ideal prop i would have thought the tunnel hull would be close to a hydro

a tunnel and a hydro are so completely different. if anything a tunnel is more like a catamaran, but not really. i was also gonna suggest the 42x55 and the x440/3.
