    Y series of props

    Whats up with the Y series? Old Sloppy said I should try a y536 on my FDM32 mono with 16 cells and the 9xl.

    I ran the numbers and it's coming out 3.5MPH faster, and about 22 amps lower draw then what it says with a x438, which seemed to work well before I lost it.

    Whats up with these props? This almost seems like, on paper anyway, a magic speed prop thats gonna bring more top end and less amp draw :rolleyes:

    I am running the y537/3 on a 14XL in the MM. I know some people do not like a 3 blade, but it is my favorite on this setup, because it runs 20 amps less than a X640 and close to the same speed.
