You can still use a lifting prop, most riggers are not supposed to run on the rear sponsons except in the turns or in rough water. That said, Octura X props are almost foolproof, they will almost always work. How big and heavy is the rigger?

its 24 1/2 long, 3in. wide, and 2 1/2 tall.with 14 1/2 in. sponsons and 31/2 in. rear sponsons. the tub will sit 1 in. above the sponsons planing surface with the rear the same. the boat without hardware or tubes for sponsons is is right at 4 lbs. the sponsons and tub both are designed like the JAE with lips to shear water. btw- my scales arnt to good plan to take it to fed x and get accurate weight.

I'd try an x642 first, then go up to an m645 if the motor/packs/ESC will handle it.
