    Power Options for some new Hulls I just pick up ? please help guys : )

    So I recently just acquire some new Hulls from the local swap shop! I do have a couple of motors laying around and was wonder everybody's options on what the best option would be ? Also I'm not oppose to buying new motors if my motors are just not gonna do it. I would be running 4s-6s.

    First off here are the motors I have laying around.



    From Left to right:
    1415-1Y 2400KV
    1512/1.5Y 1800KV
    1518/1Y 1800KV
    1520/1Y 1600KV
    1717/1Y 1580KV

    So the first Hull I have is a Venom KOS P1 hull with upgraded hardware and a prop that has no markings so not sure what it is. maybe somebody could chime in?







    Second Hull I have is a Miss Geico 29 with a offset rudder and stock prop I believe.






    let me know what you guys think the best esc/motor/prop combo would be.

      That x447/3 is a lot of prop for the P1 KOS mono,
      Because it well torque roll and barrel roll very easily to the right with that narrow hull.
      On my modded P1 KOS I use a x440/3 and it run nice and smooth on 3s, 4s, 5s,
      With the stock v500 outrunner and the stock seaking 60a esc.

        a 440/3 could work better, it is pretty narrow

            Look. I think your just trying to make everyone jealous with that fine lot of motors you have there! Lol.

            In the GEICO I'd run that 1512 motor on 5 or 6s. The 1518 I would sell to me for a good price lol. I have the perfect prop for your GEICO if your interested pm me. :-) we can work something out. Its an octura 2 blade that I spent over two hours getting it right. I sold my GEICO hull so its not needed anymore. It beat every prop I tried by far.

              Haha I been saving these motors for a rainy day! I have 2 of each in hopes of building a twin setup one day. PM you about the Miss Geico Prop btw!
