I just got my first rc boat BJ29. I'm planning to run it stock this season. Does anyone know what is the best prop to put on stock set up to get more power out of this boat? I'm running 4s.

Try either a x642 or m445 and check temps early and often.

What lipos do you have for it ?
And check the temps at the stock connector,
You should up grade them to 5.5 bullets and be good to go.

i have 2-2s 5000 in series and 2-4s 2650 parallel, by bullets you mean from motor to esc correct? will the motor wires handle it they seem very small?

[lenny]

Yes,
And also on the lipos to.
The stock connector in the boat are not good and will add resistance,
To the setup that will result in heat and loss of power.

What C rate are your packs ?

[Davidrex]

I'm using 35C and 40C packs, I only have one dean on the esc side, I got rid of the series setup as it came factory so I have 1 dean on it now. So you suggestion is to get rid of the dean and use bullets on battery side also?

[Davidrex]

Sorry I think you mean the wire that goes directly into esc on LIPO side, how do i install the bullets on it? cut it about 1" from ESC and install there? Do you have a picture??

Thank You.

[lenny]

Yes,
Run 5.5 on everything and your setup will be much happier.
And the C rate sound good, Just stay at 30 c or above.
Hey can you take some pictures of your wires and also of the transom hardware,
I would like to see the new rudder setup they did to the boat.

[Davidrex]

sure will post later when I get home

[lenny]

[Davidrex]

sorry took them the wrong way with my phone, always something

[Davidrex]

I want to get the M445 prop but I see they are all sold out when sharpened and balanced

Hear some info that you may already have in Pro Boat Q & A,
It is on page 3 of this link for props. http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...B-BlackJack-29
But their is more info on other stuff to.

And thanks for the pictures.

[lenny]

Cool,
Yes, Cut or desolder the the dean on the esc wires and put 5.5 on them,
Black gets the female plug and red gets the male plug.
On the lipos black gets the male plug and red gets the female plug.
And you will need to get or make a Y paralel plugs. http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...let-connectors
