something is Askew for sure ....I am running 75(5250) with 28 B1's ...my motors are ~600hp ... I have 29&27 M+'s that I will be testing soon ....

66@5000 are Stock 365hp numbers ... you know for a fact that the Motors are 640hp? I did test with 26 B1s and performance was terrible ... Borrow some 28's and see if the motors will spin them ..... that will tell the HP story ....m

Something in your set-up is wrong or the dyno is lying ...
Chris .... were you running stock Drives or shorts? I would love to get to 80 but have yet to get even close .... I'm hoping the 27 or 29 M+'s will get me there ...m

I had the stock B1 drives with 1.5 gears. I remember now I was actually running the 29p Mirages, not 27's. Really had trouble wtih them blowing out on take-off. Think I actually turned the 28 Bravos at 5300. It's been over 5 years ago now ...

What props gave you that kind of speed?
