Whats a good size prop for a 1160KV motor on a 240amp ESC (rated up to 8s) in a MC or Apparition hull?
I will probably run 6s or 7s most of the time, maybe throw in a 8s once in a while.

Thanks.

P.S. I already own a 42x55, m445, x642 But I think they will be too small, right??

What size motor? The two different hulls will make a difference with prop size too.

its a from Fightercat, TP Power Pro Competition 4050 Series 40 x 82mm and Fightercat 240a ESC 8s,
Im no racer, so how about a prop that will work with both? The MC is all built and ready to go, But I might throw the whole 'set-up' in the Apparition and finish rigging it. Just depends how far down the "rabbit hole" I want to go with this hobby.

thanks

I think "prop talk" is where Questions come to die.
This section is useless.

Thats a really big motor for those hulls........especially the MC. I'd try the x642.
