    Thats running some high rpm's on 6S. I would start with a pretty small dia. prop. Like maybe a 35mm if its the first time out. Thats a small prop but then you should start conservatively. If the temps are fine then move up to a 37 or 38mm and test again.

    What rigger? A fullers?

      One of our members runs that motor on 6S1P in a sport hydro, he spins an m445 up to an m545. I'd start with the former and bring the boat in after one minute to check for heat. He runs 105 second oval race heats with his and temps are okay in a full-bodied hydro.

      A properly set up rigger should be able to spin a larger prop but it depends on how you drive it - long straights with minimal slowing down are best.
