    What Prop and ESC for my 31' Hydro

    some of you have watched my build thread for my GP 310.
    I bought a TP 3630 2220kv motor for it. i know i want decent run times and somewhere around or close to 50 mph so i hope i picked a good motor for that. i will be running 4s1p.
    so my question is, what prop and esc should i be looking at here? i kind of figure a 120 amp speedo should be more than enough if i prop correctly.

    thanks

    Flycolor 150 and try something like an x440/3 or m445

      I've never heard of flycolor before, and m445 for a hydro? are you familiar with the gp310? is that common for this boat?

        M445 works good with an fe30 hull figured it would with that one too. You could also try a p220

          0.s.e. sell the Flycolor 150 escs , they seem to be quite good especially for the price.

              Yup, jim clued me in on that. Ide just buy the OSE branded version 1. Because I like to keep small business that’s been good to me going and 2. Because I’m confident Steven would help me if I did have a problem. I may or may not go that route. I don’t love the wires coming out the top like that, since space is limited ina hydro.

                    I am running a TP 3640 2250kv in a whip 20. I use the OSE Raider esc (same as flycolor) and seems to go best on a X642 D/T S/B. Speed is good, not GPS'd but have a 2-lap record here in NZ of 34 Sec. To be fair I haven't spent a lot of time with this boat and will be selling it to fund other projects.

                          This the last video I got with my gp310 with a TP3636 2220kv and a aquacraft 60amp esc. It's a lil faster now I did more work on the prop. If it looks good I could help you out. https://youtu.be/bE92pxQUwDc
