Has anyone tried the new Geico props on the old Zelos ? will they do 80mph like the abc props. Also will the 1800kv motor make much difference from the 2000kv 3831. I found it hard to get my hands on the abc props so was thinking to try the new standard Geico props when they arrive Australia

On my Gen 1 Yellow Zelos 36 running the abc 1716 props (race prepped by dasboata) I have proven that they can get into the 89-90mph range set up decent along with decent batteries. From my experience running both these props on other boats I have found that the Pro Boat cloned props are around 8-10mph slower than the abc 1716 version with both versions race prepped by dasboata (who is on here). Also while running Octura x447 props (by dasboata) with the 3831 motors in my Zelos I have gotten 79-80mph using those props. That may be the best route for you to go.

I havent gotten eny geico props to test yet but the 1900kv geico motors with stock zelos props got my zelos close to 70mph. I just got a another zelos with the 3831 motors so imma test all 3 on variety of props
