(Found what I need) Looking for a 4s mono prop.

[ChrisHerzog]

I picked up a Rico mono set up for 4s at the Gas Nats. This is just going to be a play boat and probably never raced. I’m looking for something I believe in the Octura x440 range or I’m guessing a Prather 240 would work also. I no longer have anything that small. Anyone have something that small in decent shape they are looking to unload?

It’s a 2030 but I found some props last night that I had forgotten about. Thanks tho!

I run a 1715 on mine... have tried several props around that, most ran well. The 1715 is what my particular hull like the best.

Chris, what size motor do you have? length and diameter, make?

Generally a 40mm prop is too small for a 2030 kv. A 45-47mm 1.4 pitch ratio prop is probably in the right ballpark. Something between a 20-40 nitro mono prop.

I took this pic last night. I would have to go mic it, I don’t have a clue on the size other then what’s printed here. lol, I’m no elec guy this was just an impulse buy. I was just looking for something my kids could run.

Chris,

That is a SSS 3656 motor. It's a very common entry level P-Ltd motor. Should be good for about 80-90A continuous. Try a X445, 442/3, 1814/3.
If you want it as a solid play boat it is hard to beat an X440/3.

Great, that’s what I put on it, a 440/3 and I found 4 new 5200 4s packs that I had forgotten about. So I should be good to go with teaching them how to drive a boat!!
