I have read the venom batts are crap, but they came with the boat so I'm gonna give them a try... i have the Octura x442 that I'm going to try at lunch today and am in the process of grabbing some ib4200's CHEAP...

[sewerpit]

let me know how you make out

[ice329]

were in props so batts should be someplace else but the prob with the IB4200's is that cells fail very easy, when that happens the pack is done unless you rebuild it or something, the cell when working are good, just very delicate.

I have one of my boats on the table and will try a new prop today, I forget what it is but its a 3 blade. I recently tryed a 1740-3 and dont like it.

Octura 1742-3 Bought it for the TS2 but tryed it on th SV today. I cant get the boat to plane and I dont feel like changing my set up to try to get it to work. Awsom prop but not for me on the SV, I will try it on the TS2 one of these days

No offense, but the 1700 series are not "awesome" props for monos, they simply do not work . They are the highest-lifting props Octura makes, and are suited only for hydros and perhaps a few tunnels with the right mods. Monos need non-lifting props for best overall performance - sport, oval or SAW running.

No offense taken read what I wrote. Its a awsom prop and WHAT did I by it for a TUNNEL and just tryed on the SV and IT DID NOT work but it still is awsom prop.

[Fluid]

Right. Tell us all how well it works on that tunnel.....

Tell ya what, if it dont work we can blame either the owner or a very senior guy at Octura, I forget his name but after a hour chat he gave me this prop and another one to try to fix my tight problem I was having with the TS2. My bet is it will work, I trust his experiance.

Trying it on the SV was just my idea, thinking Aquacraft sent the boats with a 3 blade so let me try it. And it did not work. Called a test.

[ice329]

Ran one of my boats today, wanted to run the X642 but I cant find it... I am pulling everything out to balance sharpen and polish one for myself, I have 3 here. If someone wants one PM me and I will PM you the price.

Will an Octura x 640 prop work with an Ammo 2300 on 16.8 Volts.
