    P lim pursuit prop suggestions

    Running the proboat 2000kv DYNM 3831 and 4s, with an Ose raider esc.
    Have a flooded stuffing tube and flexibility to raise/lower the strut.
    Not impressed with the m445?
    Thanks

    Suggest ABC 1815-17. Same dia, a little more pitch, more efficient

      You can probably get away with a 19 series but there's a risk recommending that without seeing it run first hand. Pursuits can get weird on ya with strut dept. Prop size can vary based on that depth. What works on mine might be crap on yours. Don't worry about what everybody else runs. Find your sweet spot. I would start with Ron's recommendation....... check heat. Try a 1914-17-45.....check for heat. Try a 1915-17-45 and hold yer breath the whole time it's running.....then check fer flames. That ole' chestnut.

      If you over heat the 150 they usually wont cooperate for you anymore. It's like injuring a bird. They still fly but not as well as before.

              Hey, Terry, Don and I are going to Atlanta this weekend. Sorry, we'll miss you and Ty. Running OSE Raider in P-lim mono, but bringing an old Pursuit as backup.

                Curious, are you running 4s parallel, single 4s, or 2 2s in series?

                  For sport running, a single 4S. For racing, two 4S in parallel.

                            I still race limited mono all the time. I have more boats than common sense.

                            Lately I'm racing a Raider in limited. They're really good for limited IMO. I've raced that on multiple battery combos. 2s6500's in series is nice. 4s 3300's in parallel is nice. Tomorrow I'll be testing a single 4s6200. My Raider is on it's last leg. It's been hit too many times. For our last race I dropped back to a one off Wildthing that Mike cut for me. That thing is fast but I prefer the stability of the Raider. I might rebuild the Delta 29 and try that. I keep learning, making mistakes, learn from those, don't learn from other mistakes, make more mistakes. Such is the life of a racer. Makes it more fun. If they're all perfect we'll be bored to tears.

                            Pretty bummed we're not making the trip to Atlanta his year. I just can't be gone from Michigan even over night right now.

                              Thanks Terry, what motor and prop are you running in your raider? I may give that a try..
