    little rigger???

    Hey all,

    I just bought a small rigger (18"). I will be running a Lehner 1530/8 3572kv, and a 120A ESC, 3s batteries.
    I'm thinking that ill use a .130 flex as i can get a 4mm/.130 coupler from OSE.
    My question is... what size prop would be a good place to start? Ive never had a rigger this small before, and I'm not sure.
    This boat will be intended for SPEED and that's it.
    Any suggestions on a set up would be great, even what hardware to use, as ill need that too.
    Looking forward to reading your thoughts... i know theirs allot of knowledge on this sight.
    SHOW ME THE LIGHT.

    Steve.

              2s on 3572KV with an X432 will be slower than a mini oval boat which run around 30 mph but should net you about 7 minutes run time on 2200mAh pack, 3s on that same prop should be a little faster than mini oval, we have guys that use that same motor on 3s with a 29mm prop for mini oval's 5minute run time, an x432 should net you about 3.5minutes on 3s 1800mAh, for SAWs I would go 3s and an x632 with the aim of moving up to a v935 if everything is cool.
