    Octuras X450/3 in Left & Right

    was speaking with Tom over at Octura Models on the phone he mentioned new release of this prop. bought them to try out on my Sea Terror, 12 pound twin drive cat. recieved friday and went to balancing them.

    my speeds with the X447/2 blades were running from 34,39,40, 44 mph gps.

    well, slapped these props on and after first run of one minute suffered a barrel roll high balling it on the front straight landing upside down. waited for it to get to shore.

    next run, running for all its got, experienced the first stuff..... popped out landing rightside up. continued the abuse with it begging for mercy. brought it in after 3 three laps.

    amps were 74, temps ranged from 85 degrees on the escs to 125 on the batteries.

    running 16 cell ni-mh 3300mah packs on each Feigao 10XL on transmission geared at 1:2 to 1

    only picture i took was upside down. to excited at performance. will video later.

    enjoy these pictures.

      these Feigao 10XL motors are at two years old now. very vesitle motor. love those speedmaster struts and rudder. except for this hull, 95% of equipment on this cat came from here OSE.

      i forgot to mention the speed i got with these props. GPS 49.4 mph.

        Some guys love to say they are second rate. Maybe so when it comes to a race app...But I believe they are top of the line and the BEST bang for the buck

              I run both Neu and Feigao.. For the $$ Feigao is #1.... I have found that putting in a set of Ceramic Bearings from OSE help my Feigao's run smooth and last a long time!!
              Nothing like keeping you lipos warm and your prop wet!!
