    Whats the most speed increase?

    I have a revolt 30 with a leopard 3674 2200kv. With a 4s revoletrix 5000mah 70c battery and an octura x642 I am getting 50mph.

    Is it possible for me to get 75 to 80mph with the same motor, same 4s battery with just a prop change?

    you need a castle XLX2 esc to do that. and some good batteries. motors are irrelevant for speed so long as they're not overheating.

      What I really trying to get at is this. I have a abc 2014 that I balance and sharpen myself. It adds another 14mph to 17mph on top of what the x642 gives.

      And I heard dasbosta does good stuff. So I wondering if I can realistically get another prop that is much faster than the prop that I prep.

      So with my 2014 I am in the 60's on 4s with motors like the leopard 3674 2200kv.

      I am wondering if they is a prop that can get me to 80mph with the same motor on 4s.

        you go to the prop calculator and punch in your parameters to find a prop.

        1919 will do it. you are going to fry everything trying as you approach 400 amps. the revolt 30 came with 60 amp ESC. 60amps....versus 400 amps. big *!***!***!***!**ing difference, bud. you cant just keep putting on bigger props and expect the system is just going to handle it. there is only 1 ESC that can come close to the amps you'd need. thats a castle XLX2.

          You are probably at the limit of the 60A ESC.
          The NAMBA Record for a P class mono is 80 MPH. Hull was a DF26 . They used a LMT motor, which has a 80000 RPM limit, probably a high KV
          it was run with an ABC 3853 prop (there is a typo in the record, that not a prop available I think),
          a Castle Creations Controller on 4S. a HOT setup , to say the least.
          I think your goal needs to be adjusted.

          Batteries: The C ratting printed on a battery is meaningless.
          Look here for LIPO load testing


          As for the ESC, you should be running a 150A esc or more, probably a lot more like a Castle Hydra.
