    Need help with prop for genesis and Leo 4082

    So I have a genesis 37" with a seaking 180 amp esc and a leopard 4082 1600kv..... I have a x445 on it now but seemed to cavitate a lot... I suck when it comes to how to choose the right prop... Does anyone have any suggestions on what prop and where I can order one pre balanced and sharpened?


    Also I usually run it on 6s
    Thanks

        OSE has them but they are out of stock right now. There are a few guys here that do S&B them.

                          An M445 is a de-toungued X445, I would think the toungues would get it out of the hole better, and cavitate less. Maybe your problem is from something else, like strut setup, CoG, or dull prop......?
                          What are you running for cells, I have that motor in my 36"cat on 6s with a S/B M645 and it gets over 65mph, I have also run M445, M545, and a few others.
