    Should rock n roll. Start with a m445 and check temps often. You should be able to prop up a bit from there.

      Probably of no help to you, sorry but ...

      I had my 580 6l sitting on the shelf, so i thought what the heck, for a laugh ill put it in the lil 25" Prince Mono

      Because of the weight of it in comparison to the ammo i usually run in it, its handling was unreal! It carved up the turns so nicely and down the straight it was planted yet fast and not hopping around everywhere on its own wake like it does with the usual setup

      All in all it was a fun experiment!!
      Sorry i forget what prop i was running..

          I used an 8L in a 31" Rico mono. Gps'd at 56mph on 5s2p and a x447

            I ran the 580 6L in my Df33 with a m447 modded , 4s 1p and a hydra 240. Nice motor lots of torque with speeds in the mid 50's. Has not lasted like the 1515 1y though and is now some nice delaminated fridge magnets.

                  Dick I haven’t run that setup. Sorry.
                  But you should be able to spin a good size prop.
                  You should be able to get into the larger m series props. I would start with a m445

                  Thanks
