With everything set up right and with quality cells, perhaps low/mid-50s. Otherwise, 40s..

[jester2000]

What would or could i change to get mid 60s.....

[SJFE]

Spend more money

2000kv leopard 4082, 3s 6000mah packs for 6s, x440 then x442 prop? Fluid or one of the other guys might chime in but these hulls work well with rpms...

Genesis, Single 4082 tacon 2150kv, 6sx2 Turnigy A-spec 5000mah 65c, Octura X645 S&B Detounged by me, 220 Swordfish Pro Plus, 71.6 mph GPS

[Make-a-Wake]

48mph as you have it posted

Thats taking into consideration your "smallish" 4000mah packs and 1p apparently...............you should run at least 5000 packs or some form of 2p, maybe four of those 4000's for 6s2p 8000mah.

If i use say a 2000kv plus motor on 6s would thst not be to high of an rpm...
thats why i fittedca 1600kv on 6s it kerps it in the green band

The Tacon is only a 4074 not, a 4082.

You have all the rpms you will need from the OP motor 4082 1600kv unless you are wanting just straight line SAW speed. Is this for sporting/oval racing?

[kfxguy]

1800 kv motor on 6s, m645 prop..with the strut adjustment way off, mine did 64.5mph Sunday. I'd say with the setup you have as long as you have quality high c batteries you can break 60 with an m645 prop. My data log read 31k rpms at that MPH. So you don't need alot of rpms to do it going by my log.

The following set up with get you to 66-70mph consistently, how do I know, cause my set up is similar from a Motor KV and ESC perspective. Trust me!

I agree, I would invest in better batteries. What name brand are they op?

Sounds Beastly! The OP needs to notice the difference in yours and his, besides the prop, which is the fact that your Batts are stout and deliver more than TWICE the amperage of his which gives it the "power".

His continuous amp delivery = 160a
Yours = 385a!

Come on Ray I'm 50 old and I was trying to go from memory, I do know for sure it went 71.6mph! Right before it went into destruct mode when I hit a Turttle.
