      I am using Eagle Tree on mine. You can look at a graph chart in real time. Example: I have crashed my boat before and the chart shows I am cruising along at 72mph then it spikes up to 98mph and back to zero mph in about 1 second. Thus, top speed reads 98mph. I know I did not go 98 mph, so it was caused by the boat whipping around during the crash, like Grim said....I think.

              I have run mine to 49 on the L45X68. I love the way this prop carries the boat!

                  Ran my MC today, hit 41 with GR 42x55 prop, using 4s turnigy 6000mah 45c bats
                  than swapped batts and ran 38 using venom 3000mah 30c batts

                  in the past with a crash, I saw 55mph on gps, which didn't really occur.
