ABC high pitch props

[zooma]

Go back to octura or lower your strut to put the bow down !!!

Yes. Staying with M445. Also, moved the CG forward and that seemed to eliminate the flip. Got several runs today at the club pond, and no flip. It may be a little slower, but it's more important to finish a race and let someone else flip for a change.

dasboata: Are the blades of the ABC props supposed to be alot thicker compared to octura's especially after they have been S/B'ed ?

On the bigger 2.7 & 2.8 yes, but not on these small guys, except for there H series, and some of the round ear props

You mean the 1715 and 1815's ?

No,,,,,,

I have been having trouble with my P class Pursuit flipping, particularly when crossing another wake. Would higher rake make that better or worse? Also, are these high rake props mostly for SAW or still OK for oval racing?

I ran an abc on my voracity last night. It does fine going around an oval. So yes I think you'll be ok.

Thanks. I got a major improvement by moving cg forward. Changing props is lower priority right now, since I am setting up a Q class Ariane 2. I will probably want to try an ABC on that later on. It's a larger version of the Pursuit. I am watching the Voracity threads, though.

Just wanted to let you know since I ran it hearsay evening. I've mainly been using them for saw props but as I saw yesterday, it's I good oval prop with more top speed and doesn't give up any handling.

A little bit of trim tab would go a long way on settling that hull.

I finally got around to doing what you suggested and you couldn't be more right. I never messed with them because I thought they would slow it down. It is crazy such a small adjustment would make such a big difference. With no tab I got a new best of 66mph but it is like an airplane wing with no boat in the water. Even with the batteries all the way forward it wants to blow over. Not really very useful or fun to tell you the truth.

With the tabs down a very small amount it is like another boat. Very steady with speeds still 60+. More to come.

Thanks. I know to start with the tabs level. But I don't what to do next. I wonder if I can now drop the tabs a bit, and then move the CG back a little to pick up my speed.

Yup, I fought with my DF35 (and myself) for the better part of a year using the same reasoning but alas, just a touch of tab and she is beauty.

So, I would like to try out one of these ABC props on my Pursuit. The M445 runs really good on mine so far and I don't want to get too far away from that. Would the 1715-17-45 be about right?

Find out what OSE guys suggest and I can help you out with the b/s prop my suggestion would be a reduced 1914 ,,thanks chris

[MG1234]

They suggested an M 447 so I ordered it ,I don't know how to sharpen or ballance ,and in 2 mo the boat season will be over and I'm back at the track ,I snap shot your message and save them for future reference ,I asume the 1914 is an ABC prop? Would it be faster or slower than the M447? In case it's too much for my boat I'll know which way to go ,thank you for your help ,it's great fun going fast ,
