Thanks to IRON CLAD, I had a chance to do my own prop testing. Not , quite as robust , but it gave me a good starting point. I was coming from , a Stock setup with my Black Jack 24, so, my test bench, was limited. MY electronics had already been upped to a 120 Amp ESC. , and a few additional tweaks. THE boat had come with a Stock Black Jack 29 prop, which simply over heated the electronics. I had tested several CNC props, .438, a.440, several FTL's , and a Grim Racer. 1515. THE Grim Racer and the FTL 438 , ran the best, and the smaller prop, (s) , actually kept the electronics cooler, and both props, were wicked fast on 4S. THE .440, had a good top end, but was a bit sluggish at the start. I gained two mph. , but , with hot electronics, it wasn't worth it. I eventually settled on the.438 FTL , with a 2.26 pitch. 🐠

I followed your vid on the bj42 with the heat issue in the tube, but the swv2 is not quite the same set up. I spun er up a quarter throttle and within ten seconds, it was getting to hot to touch again. I havent a clue what to do next or is this just normal? Thanjs

Possibly the trim on your boat, if it's running to wet/deep in the water it'll cause extra drag, causing excessive temps. Easy fix is to trim the boat up a few turns on the trim tabs is a good starting point also moving cog back. Trim it up far enough it stays in the water.

@IRONCLADRC

Жыл бұрын

Almost impossible to find a 4 blade 3/16 bore prop. Personally I like 2 blade props for absolute speed. 3 blade props for out the hole acceleration. 4 blade props cavitate

Sad about your controller glad you got it working again 👍👍 good video help me out

Interesting test. But the „oxidean 4519“ hasn’t 1.9 pitch. Actually they are 1.3~. That’s TfL hobby props and copy’s of „Graupner K props“. Very high efficiency. But never 1.9. compare them to Graupner k.

Thanks for that information. To me it actually looks like 1.3 or 1.4 pitch prop with a stretched surface area wrapped around the hub giving it a little more aggressive bite than say a true 1.3p propeller..... Very similar in look to the tfl 3519 (or is it the 3419?) 4mm prop.... I've owned a couple 1.9 p props, and your right they look nothing alike. You kinda confirmed my thoughts. Thanks

@@IRONCLADRC Some of your tested props has a better performance if you would eliminate lift by changing strut angle. Eliminate lift makes the boat run dryer because the pressure on the bow is reduced. this in turn reduces the current and thus the temperature and of course increases the speed. So adjust strut angle (and trim tabs if available) with each prop. then every prop has a "fair" chance to show what he can do.

We wana see this boat hit 60+😬

I herd silica packs work pretty good too.

So why don’t you run bigger batteries? I can’t stand running 5000 mah cause you get no run times. All I run in every boat is 9000 mah 100c batteries. Get like 12-14 minutes run time

@@IRONCLADRC I'm not sure, I made a comment about the prop testing and its gone. Anyway great video and the gist of the comment was new boaters throwing Oxidean props on and burning their boat down.

Today's adventure: Black 24 , MODS; Replaced original 30 AMP (Worthless,) , and barbecued it, when the throttle pegged. Changed to Dynamite 120 AMP, REPLACED )garbage V2 version of strut, and rudder to a Veles 29 unit, with dual water pickups , and better bearings. UPDATED , and beefed up Flex cable. PROP : Grimracer low lift : 1.5 ", 1.7 effective pitch " , STUT. toed neutral. . SPEED 32, (3S) , on a rail. Same Config, 4S . about 45- BUT lifts too much, and can't keep it stable. NEED to Blueprint the runners. FROM there? Replace the motor, that can handle the higher current, and and update to a CNC 43 mm. prop 2.0 pich. I smell giddy up, I also want to find an outfit , who can sharpen the prop. It's a pretty sweet ride, now; But I'm looking forward to the 6th. gear.

Its alot of work but very rewarding sounds like your on the right track. If I could recommend 1 thing for your set up would be a tfl 438. It sounds silly but it's a great prop for the boat. Should get you into the 50s plus easily, with out blueprinting... just my advise

Right now, I am sort of in a weird place, Trying get a simple question answered , regarding a specific prop, and get a loop. FROM "OFF Shore Electrics." A CNC 42-43 MM prop , having a 3/16 " bore, wouldn't work? according to them. I don't understand that. I am running a small diameter , Grim racer. AND it fits fine, along with the Black 29 Bigger prop. 1.6" , 2.06 . , So, again, I don't get where they are going? with this ? So, I am glad you mentioned the 438? Is it already "tuned," or do I have to mess it? I have an event this weekend, so I would prefer , " THE Drag and drop approach . In the mean time, where can I get a hold of the prop, you mentioned? I have my test run on Saturday, then the event this coming Sunday, so I don't have a lot of time to test. WOULD that prop be available through AMAZON? Thanks, for all your amazing, and informative videos. AND , course, have great day at the lakes. I look forward, to your response, Thanks, in Advance, Mark -

I just looked at the 438. It's practically the mirror to the Grim racer, I am running now. ? two mm, smaller, but a steeper pitch. Can I prop up, say to a 40, or a 42" , of that prop.... if that makes sense? Have you tested a bigger prop on the Black Jack?

Product ID tfl-5b11x40 In Stock 4 TFL 440 propeller, 40mm diameter Specs: Diameter: 40mm (1.58") Pitch: 56.13mm (2.21") Metal: Copper Rotation: Left hand. These spin counter clockwise when looking at them from the back of the boat. Fits smooth bore, 3/16" with drive dog. Note: Picture represents a propeller than has been polished. These props require balancing and finishing. Price: $9.95. THE price is definitely right? IT's COPPER, so what about durability? I'm going from Balanced Stainless steel, to this? THE pitch , is definitely more radical, and is actually higher than the Black 29 prop. Interesting . THE only caveat, is they aren't finished, and I don't the time to get them "tuned." Unless , you have a local source? I'm in Minneapolis.

Yea the 440 and 438 are great! the 443 is way to big it torq rolls the boat some kinda bad. I've also used and octura 638 but it also torqued the boat pretty bad but was controllable
