Props for DF Sniper on 12S??????

[Anbjorn]

Here is a question for you FE racers.
I am in the process of building a electric Delta Force Sniper.
As this is my first "real" FE boat I am blank when it comes to pick the right propellers for it.
I want to get two good props to start with.
One fast heat racing prop and one for SAW.
I have got some recomendations from some of you already
- X460/3
- X472 cupped
- ABC2616
- 1475 pitched up
Any more good suggestions?

Here is a list of the inside goodies:
- Lehner 3080/7 (33300rpm on 12S-250Amp-15HP)
- Schulze XXL 40.300WK (300/400A)
- 12S2P (Hyperion VX 5500, 35/65C packs)
Thanks

LoL those are big prop for any electric setup,
i was running Plett Hp370/bm/50/A1 S on 12s Hyperion VX 5500, 35/65C packs
1.3 m mhz hull pulling around 30k X455 X457 where the props i ran
A Delta Force Sniper with 15 Hp motor 12s and and any of the props above i hope you have some video of the first run i think those props are way too big i would try a X460/2 to start
Would love to see some pics of this boat

[Anbjorn]

Thank you for the input.
Here are some pictures of the current status.
Need to get some carbon fibre now to glass in the drive line and battery plate.
Thanks

HOLY SH#T! Look at that speedy!!!

Interesting set up. Most of the other Snipers have the packs in front of the motor.

I run two packs side by side in front of the motor and two packs one each side outboard of the rails.

I've run all the above props at various times on 10S2P in my Sniper. The 460/3 is a great 10S oval prop. I also like the 462/2 and 467/2 on it with 10S.

you may want to contact schulze about the 40-300 they have had 2 of them fail when letting off throttle they contacted Ken and told him not to run it again untill they look at the problem

One viking to antother: Looks good, also been looking on a DF Sniper, where did you get the hull?

[Boatman]

With that power and rpm I would start with a 60 but likely you can easy handle 65. If more speed is needed or desired you could get a 65mm pitched and or cupped from Andy Brown. Awesome boat!

Nice mount where did you buy that.....................
Hows it going Anbjorn ,the build is coming along very nicely . my very first run would be with a X455/3 and that would put you at a comfortable 105kph + and work from there a X460/3 on new cells would be an easy 120kph+ if that is a 3080/7 in your hull

Bill he is running a solid 5mm shaft also not a flex hence the distance or the motor so far back

Thanks for the heads up
Schulze emailed me and asked me not to use it until they have new software ready, so hopefully I should be ok.

Yeah Peter wonder who made that.............
Thank you very much for making me such a nice part

Seems like the X460/3 is one that is mentioned alot and yes the motor in the hull is the 3080/7

I got it from Jørn Markset at Fokus Racing i Norway.
Remember to get the closed cowling and not the one with opening for exhaust pipe.
