37" Genesis Build

[dddmx3]

Looking to build a 37" Genesis. Bought the hull and hardware. Stuck on the electronics.

Thinking of going with 2x Leopard 4550kv Brushless Inrunners with a swordfish 200+ esc and 4s lipo 5000mah 25C to each one. Let me know if I have any problems with my planned setup.

Thats over 67,000 rpm's,problem isnt the word! Catastrophic failure is more like it!!

What should I do to fix my setup?

Youre good on the esc,you may want to get higher c rated batts also. For 4s go with a lower kv, around 1800 to 2200 kv.You may also want a longer can motor

How about this inrunner 2200kv 70mm inrunner with these lipos?

Always start small with ur props and check your temps often during the break in period. Goodluck with your build!

What size props do you recommend?

Also... should I make both props spin clockwise? Or make the left one spin counter clockwise (reversed prop) and the right one clockwise (normal prop)? It seems kinda like a smart idea..

Octura x442 is where i would start with props. Counter rotating on the props.

Thanks.
Bigger props = more speed, less run time because of more work
Smaller props = less speed, more run time because of less work
right?

Is that what it is called? Counter rotating? Also, what do you think of the cnc props?

Personaly im a fan of the smaller props and high rpm's! Cant tell you too much about the paddle wheels.Correct,its called counter rotating.They can turn both inward or outward. I like the CNC props, that what i have on my Daytona/ Genesis.

Ok. So pretty much I just have to buy a bunch of plastic props and once I find a set I like, buy cnc ones?

[h2o 1]

Its a good idea to start with the Composite props if you can find them in l/r configuration.

Ok. I'll find out what I like and then buy the same set but cnc version. Thanks for your help
