Man, I don't know how else to say it, but Dasboata is an awesome guy to deal with, does excellent prop work, at a very reasonable price, and exceptional turnaround time.
I can do my own props to a moderate standard, better if I can muster the patience, but time is money to me(or boat running time:biggrin:) but regardless, no prop I have ever done came out nearly as nice as his, and for me this boat especially deserves nice props:cool2:.
I asked him to do (2) sets of props for me on Monday. He told me he would have to order one set because it wasn't in stock. I mentioned that I would pay the shipping twice if he could get me the first set by the weekend. It is Thursday, and both sets were in the mailbox! I hustled down to the pond to see what my KBB45 could do with these, as I was looking for a 7s prop that would come a little closer to my 8s results, it was windy and choppy, so not a true test yet.......
The first props were X450/3's DT'd and cut to 447, I got what I expected, I think it was 86mph, about 4-5 mph over the X447's, but I think I could have done better with better conditions.
The second set, well, those ones gave me 97.5 mph and still only drew 166 amps:w00t:, but I'm not sure I'm quite ready to talk about those yet:spy:
Thanks Chris:tiphat:, worth every penny and then some. You'll be hearing from me again soon.
