    Default Recomended prop for mini hydro?

    What 1/8" shaft prop should I use for a mini hydro 16" long with 35amp and 3600kv? Not sure bout pitch and such. I'm lost here.

    I'd start with a 27-32. Try some of the plastic ones sold here to get an idea. I use a x632 and a v932 on my 17.5" hydro. The 35mm heats thing up too much.

    These at the top? I figured my rpm would be too high. Since reccomend 10-25k. I have a 3680kv X 11.1V = 40848rpm

    Anywhere else where I can find 1/8" shaft props that I don't have to balance and sharpen.

    I run an Feigao 8l on 3s. I have started with the plastic ones but broke most of them. I would get metal. They do cost more but if I was to add up of all of the plastic props I broke. I could of bought two metal ones. I have a custom V935 that was cut down to 32 and that prop flat out hauls!

    BTW These are the plastic ones I'm talking about. They're for 1/8" shafts.
