Nate that is not the motor you want to run on 6s voltage.:flammes-09:

Sport hydro or rigger, sport , racing, or SAWs????

We need to know what you're after.

Absolutely do not run that motor on 6S!! It is way too hot for 4S except for SAW racing - and then no more than 30 seconds at a time. If you want to power a 35-40" hydro on 6S, aim for the shorter length.

A Neu 1527/1Y is a good choice for 6S, a prop around an x450 to x452 would be a good place to start. A reliable speed for that hydro would be around 60 mph, maybe 65 if the water is smooth. But you will probably be limited to no more than two minutes of run time due to heat buildup. Like Doug said, we need to know what you want to do, not what you want to run.
