    1/4" props for a leo 5692 like 457/3 or 660/2 also 3/16" L&R 448 or 447

    Looking for some props, preferably cnc aluminum.
    I have a leo 5692 with a 1/4" shaft needing a submersed prop. Maybe a 1.4 ratio 57 diameter 3 blade, or a 1.6 ratio 60 diameter .

    Also looking for a set of counter rotational 1.4/ 1.5 47 or 48 mm diameter for leo 4074's and 3/16" shaft. these might need to be surface props.

    Let me know what you have.

    I am not trying to be a smart a$$ but are you certain you know enough about FE boats to choose props without help? From your post it appears that your are pretty clueless. We want to help, please answer the following:

    1) Is the Kv of the motor 540 or 730 or 1000 or 1090 or 1340? None of these have a 1/4" output shaft, do you have a 1/4" prop shaft?
    2) What voltage will you be running?
    3) What ESC will you be running?
    4) Exactly what hull type?
    5) What speed are you wanting?
    6) Fully submerged prop applications are rare, are you certain that is what you want?
    We need to know all this to help you.

      5692 is 1340 will be on 6-8s, swordfish 240, and yes, the flex shaft is 1/4"- not the motor...

      Thank you for taking the time to help and being a smart ass is much better then being a dumb ass! However, "From your post it appears that your are pretty clueless" is just bragging.

        I have no need to brag, been in the hobby a very long time, am well known and was simply identifying your obvious shortcoming. If you want help fine - but insulting a helper is not a way to get it. Too bad they don't teach manners anymore. Bye.

          Yikes dude! Not to sure how I insulted you- but I'm starting to think you're using a bit of malice to form your sentences("identifying your obvious shortcoming"). Do you know what they say about malice? Every act of malice stems from insecurity. I'm sorry you feel insulted, but, it was never my intentions. Thanks anyway...

            just in-case, "being a smart ass,"(you wrote) "is much better then being a dumb ass," (a perceived reference to me, from your point of view); also, borrowed from the late George Carlin. Hope you feel better and thanks again, anyway.

              You are a cyber molester, who uses help candy to lure vulnerable victims into your knowledge van for an unforgettable event of self-righteous abuse--- I know it needs work, but I haven't had my coffee yet- what do you think Fuid?

                    BW, I'd suggest getting a 1/4" cable with a propshaft stepped down to .187" . 1/4" gasser props will be too big for your application.

                      This would make a lot of sense. It's a little hard finding smaller props with a 1/4" shaft bore. I'll begin the hunt for the stepped down prop shaft. Thanks a million, Rumdog!
