How's your speed now? How are the riding characteristics? Is it running the way you want or do you want changes in performance? If so, how much change? -
It has not been in the water yet.Comment

Hi,
If you are running a 6S1P (think you are), then you have the perfect motor and ESC for it. I would start with an Octura x440 prop, if everything is running cool, I'd then try an Octura x442.
On 4S, the best prop is x642 IMHO.

i think there really must be something wrong if that combo would get hot spinning a 40 or 42mm 1.4p prop
i really don't see the point buying 4082 can motors and 180amps esc's to sping a prop that size at 6s 1600kv!
that combo is good for a lot more
save that powerplant for a larger and better hullComment

Yes the motor is over kill -- 1600kv is spot on but 4074 would be plenty...
