I have a few to choose from and have become quite good at working them for what i want... but this has always been for .21 size nitro riggers, i can get nitro over 70.
    Im sure that prop performance wouldent differ a much between nitro and FE...Would it???
    I have never used an H series prop befor, but this seems to be quite popular in the FE world.
    Maby i will give one or two a try.
    Thanks for the info guys.

    Hi Steve,
    My partner just ran 78.7 mph on Garmin NEU 1415 1-Y (OLD STYLE CASE NO AIR HOLES) (smaller case than 1515 same rotor size), ESC 240 SWORDFISH, 8MM connectors 6s. He told me prop but not sure I think 1450. This is a JAE .21 built just like yours square and true to the plans. It has more left in it as he was driving I was watching running attitude. It ran 78.7 on the whole front sponson. I call it flat footed so there is more speed left on the table. The pond we run on is to small.

      Steve If I understood you want a fast boat just for fun so my recipe for a Jae Fe running in the low 90's:Leopard 4082 2000kv running 6S and Turnigy 180 prop 1450 reduced to 47mm and cup 3,5 check it ou on the video

        What sort of run time do you get with that ^ combo? I am looking into building one of these and those speeds are pretty impressive.

          Leesome this is typical saw set up so short run times but as you can see in this video it can make 6 long passes with a 5.0A battery.Gill
