Prop For Sport 20 Whip FE

[JUICE]

Hey guys I'm new to FE. Got a sport 20 Whip with the UL-1 motor and ESC running a 4C lipo. How about some prop ideas for this boat. Thanks.

Juice will race it!!

My FE-30 with the UL-1 motor runs the fastest with an m445 or a Grim 42x66. Both will draw an average 90-100 amps so watch the ESC.

A better sport prop is the x442, still fast but less amps and heat.

Alan and I can help. does this mean you are going to be at the Pond Hopper races.
We would like to run that class.

I know a few guys have goods luck with the 645 cut a bit. ABC 4555 cupped up works nice. Be careful there is a fine line between fast and Poof!

When we see you at the pond we can let you try some special props we know work well. BTW at a race I was at in Phoenix this winter the Whip was Ra-dared at 51mph in race trim with the UL1.

What controller are you running?

GPS 50.7 mph on my Whip with UL-1 motor, M445, 4S1P 4200 mah VXG3 35C Hyperions

Thanks guys for the info. I think this boat will be more for play than racing. Gonna stay away from the fine line on burning stuff up. 50 mph is plenty fast. Got a ways to go yet before she hits the water. I'm surprised at how many gasholes are getting into FE. Thanks again guys and thanks for the call Smock.

Then an x442 would work well for you. With the FE-30 the m445 gives 54 mph and the 42x66 gives 55, so the x442 should be right where you want it (50) with a bit lower amp draw.

It's not what it seems Raydee, but we'll get him eventually.

With my limited testing experience the detunged x645 works well. I have more AOA built into my sponsons.
