Hi,
I have a ProBoat Shockwave 26 Brushless that has a 1500Kv motor. I'm running this with an 11.1 volt 3 cell 6400 20c battery. Recently while running it I broke one blade tip of the stock plastic prop and would like to replace it with a metal prop. Based on the forum it appears that any metal prop runs with less vibration when sharpened and balanced. I would like to ask if I could get any recommendations for a metal replacement? Size, number of blades, type of metal, and a good source for this type of prop. Do most places that sell a metal prop do sharpening and balancing? If not, any recommendations for that? Thank you in advance for your help.
