Does anyone know what prop to upgrade to? Also a good place to buy them at for cheap? I was thinking three propeller props..

I just got x642 from OSE. I may have a chance to try it out on Saturday. Will let you know how it is in 2 blade upgraded prop. I had it going on SV prop and did not see big diference in performance. This one should get few miles improvement in speed. On all stock I was able to GPS 32.4 MPH.
the stock prop is pretty big i thinks its 1.6x2.6 thats 400, if prop is to big there will be drag
I have pretty good experience with the Octura 440/3. Should give you some extra speed and you get it from here for $15 og just under $50 balanced and sharpened if you dont want to do that yourself :)
a 3 blade prop?, i have a stock boat with 2 5300lipo batteries, i tried my buddies 642 and it seem same maybe . but you tried a 3 blade, and how can i buy here..thanks
but you tried a 3 blade and it was faster..
Yep, but I have not tried the X642 so I don't know if it is faster than that.
hello guys
I would try a Graupner 45mm prop, I got a 180A esc and stock motor 4s lipo, do you think I will gain speed with this prop?
I just recieved my balanced and sharpened X642 from offshoreelectrics along with a programming card, and the boat looks a lot faster im guessing another 4mph gain. (with some tweaks to the buisnes end of course).

How are you fitting std. 3/16" props on the 3mm shaft ????
I use a X642 de-tounged with good speeds, a 440 3 blade and a prather 215SS , they all seem to work pretty good but the 3 blade works best with my dual rudder setup.
Guys,
most if not all of you recommend the x642 prop. Some de-tongue and some don't specify. Can someone elaborate on why de-tonguing is a benefit and maybe how/how much to take off? Thanks!
(I can't seem to find anything on the de-tonguing methods in all the prop sharpening guides)
