Prop options on a 33" DF

[sigelitest]

I oopsed it is a 36 not a 33

Looking for a prop size on a DF 36"
Using a leo 5692 1340Kv
5s single 5000ma 40c pack
200a SF ESsc.

I want to get some speed out of it and not melt the pack

I have no personal experience with the 5692 motor, but if it performs as the specs say it should, start with an x450. That should get you into the mid/high 40s if the boat is trimmed well. You may be able to go up to an x648 but be careful....

if i could get two packs in there what do u think on prop and speed

Wow, that's a lot of motor for a 36" boat. I've got the Hobbyking version that I'm putting in a Stryker f41 and I was going to start with a X455. Have you purchased the motor yet? Have you seen the prices on these http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...Product=18848?

Ive ordered one, waiting on one of the 1700KV ones
ive got a few 40C 4s and 5S packs, so was going to use them in a 1M hull, hopefully it will work!

I looked at the HK motor it looks nice. Already got this one Installed with home made motor mounts

On 5s that motor can spin alot of prop. An x455 or x452/3 should be right in the zone for you. As Fluid mentioned though, an x450 would be a good place to start safely.
