Hi Guys

I know this one's getting a bit long in the tooth But I'm just really starting to learn about props and just got my Scale going really nice last weekend with an X455.

My question is, do you guys remove the tongues from your props to let

em rev a bit more freely?

Cheers

Bob

Bob,

Removing some of the leading edge will help improve

the RPM on your set up. We are also starting to work

with a Octura Y-557 with reduced cup and it has started

to show some pretty good race results. Aprox. 6.00" of

cup instead of the 7.50" that comes stock with it out of

the bag.

Keep Testing,

Mark Sholund

Dan,

You have the numbers they come with every propeller that I do.

I hope you didn't lose those cards I sent you?

Depending on what hull I'm running I've use a 457/3 heavily modified to a 60x76 Bar Cut and Cupped to a 1657. On my most recent boat I've been getting good results with 1457/2 and 3 cupped up to about 4.5 to 4.65

Bob get a detoungued x455x3 you may end up with a x457x3 but the first prop will get you very close. Andy or props4u should be able to help you

My favorite is the one I put on to try and stay ahead of the guy that put one on to try and get ahead of me. Sometimes it works and sometimes not.

Keep up that great work Mr. Sholund.
