Miss Budweiser Mystic 29--what's the best prop?

[TheShaughnessy]

damn i had to put sun glasses on to look at that prop. I've always like the m445, i ran it with a ul1 motor and my geico hit a recorded 47, could have been faster another day but only had gps in the boat a couple times. burnt up my ul1 motors so now im running the stock 1500 kv proboat motor with the 445, I just picked up a b225 to try. I believe it has46.7 mm diameter. As a side not did prather get bought out? I thought the b225 was a prater prop but it said hypermarine on the package i believe. try the x642 on 5s. I know that set up in my super vee was really fast. I also have an x 645 but have noticed the m prop to be faster so im gonna do some work on it to try and unleash some more high end speed. I have the 42x 55 one detounged and one not but i dont really run them so couldn't tell ya. Still wonder what happened to my x440/3 I have the x337/3 but it's pretty small, think i bought it for my super vee.

I think you should stay with the 642, good all around prop

UPDATE: I sold the stock motor and ESC and now run the Leopard 4074 2200kv on 4s with the Seaking 180. Have tried P215, x442, x445, and x642. The 642 hits the LVC right away. The 445 hits the LVC sometimes, but when it doesn't it REALLY hauls ass. The 445 I balanced may be a bit much, as it creates some serious amp draw, and heat, but I really want to make it work. Anyone else playing with this motor combo? MUCH faster than the 642 with the stock motor. The 442 scoots really good, and gives good temps and run times. The 215 scoots really good, but not as fast as the 445. I run the 215 on my Spartan on 6s.

I get my props razor sharp, but I only shine a bit with some WD and Scotch brite, along with super fine sandpaper. What steps do you use get the incredible mirror shine? Damn, that's the nicest prop I've ever seen!

I polish under a scope and use rubber wheels and diamond polishing paste. I own a dental lab and polish metal all the time.. If anyone wants me to polish out your balanced props let me know and I will be happy to do for you - N/C, its kinda fun

My Mistic RIPS with the stock prop over the x642 and handles very well all-around.Cooler temps to. It slingshots out of the corners and seems to have quite a bit more top speed. Im going to try a x640 and see what happens, dosent seem like a stock unit should work this good but it dose. Stock motor , seaking 120 ESC , 40c 2s
