Default Re: Prop Size...Suggestion

Personally, I love the Mirage Plus. It may be one of the 2 or 3 best stern-lifting props out there, and is probably the #2 in a 3-blade.

If you install that 17"P, be careful not to seriously over-rev your motor. It should jump on plane, but at max of 5200 rpms, you're likely to get about 45-47 mph. And I promise you, that's still flying!
