    df vortex prop question

    I have the 22" df vortex and I have the stock bj26 motor (1500kv) in her and wanted to know what prop I should use. I have the .125 drive cable installed as well and right now have an x430 prop on her. That prop was intended for the feigao 8xl but I have yet to get a powerfull enough esc for it.

    I'd probably run an x642 and sleeve it down if you don't wanna buy a new flex shaft.

      I know the blackjack 26 likes the X642 prop but I didn't think a hydro would like it.

      Good to know though
      Thanx
