    Default Need prop recommendation for HET 1170kv in Whip40

    I have been recommended to use some ABC props but they are not available to me before I'll run this again before winter.

    What about some Octura of Prather props?? I have some large ones that I can modify to a certain degree, just no pitch gauge.

    Runs on 6s2p 8800mha total old Revo diamond packs.

    I have a 59mm 3 blade 1.4 pitch prop shop prop, I think. It's equivalent to an Octura 459 x3 I think but less tongue.

    That is 'way too much prop if you intend to race. I don't know what props you have, but try the equivalent of an x452/x445 or in that area. That motor is similar to a Neu 1527/1Y.

    For octura anything between 450 - 455 would work. I'm running a new ABC 1915 17 degree from Chris and really like it.

    I tried Chris, you said you didn't have a 2215-17-45% since the 2315 might be too much.

    I tried to contact Walt Barney but not successful .

    Thanks for the suggestions , I have some props in this range. I'll check back to tell you guys what I have.
