Hello all,
I have a Pro Boat React 17 that I installed a Seaking 2040 4800KV motor with 30A ESC and new shaft to run a standard drive dog prop mount set up. The stock props cannot handle the extra torque and rpm and are breaking. I have tried a handful of different props from OSE in 1.4 and 1.5 pitch from 30mm to 35mm. These have too much pitch for the high rpm and light boat, they don't bite at first and when they do get the boat moving they are causing it to chine walk badly and handling is drastically reduced. Also, the RPM is too low for the desired speeds.
I don't know what the pitch on the stock 35mm is but it performs the best by far. It bites right away and doesn't chine walk. Maybe a 1.2ish or less?
Measured stock prop (24mm pitch / 35mm diameter = .69) Was way off thinking 1.2ish
I'm having a hard time finding anything in 1/8", 32-35mm with less than 1.4 pitch. Any recommendations?
Thanks
