I have a mystic proboat and I am looking to upgrade motor, esc and prop. I need some advice on what is the best motor and prop for a overall speed and performance upgrade. I have been checking out the castle or leopard motors. I also have 2 3 cell lipo 40c 5000 battery's

Leopard 3674 would get it screamin, for 6s the 1400kv would be nice............maybe spin an x642 or m445 with it.

Thanks for the info, Another quick question which water jacket do I get for it and do you have a link for the props, I am hoping that the motor will come with everything I need to swap it out and mount the new one in.

The castle equipment also works good in there on 4s. I bought a spartan and didn't want to run 6s in it so I took the electronics out of it. I'm still running the stock prop balanced and sharpened on the Mystic. It's quicker with the same kv motor, but a longer can. I might try a bigger prop next time out. I don't have any plans to run 6s at the moment. An m445 is in line to try while the water is still cool.

ok so I decided on the Leopard 3674 Motor 1400kv and the m445 prop and the turnigy 180 esc. Will this motor mount to the current mount in the boat if not what else will I need. I am hoping this motor will provide plenty of performance. Is there a difference between the 3674 vs the 4082 in speed. I would like some input thanks.
