Delta Force Explorer 36 motor and prop

[T.J.]

Hello OSE i am pretty hooked on the DF Explorer 36 and i was baisicly wondering what motor/prop i should do? I was thinking a Feigo or an outrunner on 4s and want to hit high to low 40's. By the way im going to make it a single motored boat. I would also be on a budget if i did this. I am open to any suggestions.
thank you

What are your other goals for the boat - run time expecially? Both the motor types you mentioned could work, although 4S2P (two 4S packs wired in parallel) will give a lot more run time. Is there a reason you don't want to run 6S? I ask because with your speed goal of 45 mph you can use 6S1P and get a lot more run time and lower temperatures than 4S1P.

4S - Aquacraft 1500 Kv motor and x648 prop, Feigao 9XL and x445 prop, or a 36mm outrunner (the longer is better) with a Kv around 1800-1900 rpm, x445 or x447 prop.

6S - Feigao 14XL and x445 prop or a 40mm outrunner with a Kv around 1300 rpm, x445 or x447 prop.

Depending on how the boat is set up you may need a bit more or less prop for each recommendation, but those should get you close. Choose an ESC with at least 150 amp capacity.

I would like long run times but like you said 45ish mph and no there is no reason not to go to 6s i was just throwing out ideas. Im thinking an outrunner 1300kv with a 447 prop would be the best for me. Thank you for your help Edit: by the way i was woundering this set up is for a single right?

I was wondering how well this setup would work? I dont know how long the motor will last or if you have any motor suggestions but i was thinking a x447 prop ( of course there would be to of those lipos in parralell)
