UL1 Brass Prop upgrade - Won't Plane ??

[mopwr]

Hi everyone I purchased a brass prop upgrade that is recommended by Aquacraft - Brass prop 9760 - The boat won't plane with the prop....installed the stock prop and the boat planes a moves really good .....What am I doing wrong ?...Shows that this is an high performance upgrade.


Thanks

It needs to be balanced and sharpened. If its the L40/57/3 blade, then yes, definitely doesn't plane unless the balance and sharpening is done. those props are quite difficult to do too

If its done right, you'll see 50mph with that prop

Thanks for the advice ....I am using the stock one for now but will see what I need to do for balance/ sharpened process ....

Thanks again

Have you tried lowering the strut?

I did lower the strut and was a little better but not performing as it should .....Was told to sharpen and balance ....

Thanks for the post !!
