    UL1 All around play toy.

    I have been reading a bunch of different threads and wasn't sure what setup i was looking for. I am not looking for a race competitive boat , but looking for all round boat with speed/acceleration/runtime setup. So all being said with stock setup what is best for prop/adjustments/lipos? Thanks , Steve

      Welcome:
      A L40x57/3 is an awesome prop. Drop the strut around 1 1/8" should be all good to go. A x440/3 is also a good starting prop.

          Thanks for the fast reply. I actually put a x440/3 on it from my nitro. Just received the boat today used but in great condition, although had a 40mm plastic on it. How would you compare the L40x57/3 with 440?

              I had better luck with the L40x57/3. It's lifter prop better suited for 3 point hydros. Worked good for me...

              Where in the NC are you?

                          With the 440/3 I was getting low to mid 40 mph out of the boat with the strut dropped. with the 40/57/3 I was mid to upper 40's. Its a quick little hydro. With an upgraded 2200 motor and the grim 40/57x3 I'm in the mid 50's. Lipos I was using 2-2s 40c 5000mah.

                              Great play around toy, but don`t try to use as a recovery boat to bring in a Miss Geico.....

                                  The 40/57 is a really rough prop. It took me a good 4 hours to get that thing b/s and thinned. Those blades were as thick as quarters lol. One thing for me is mine is kinda squarely with that prop, but fassssst
