To turn the props in or out?
35 lightning t/s 88 mph/gps turning props outward rotation. If I were to change the props to inward rotation would it handle any differently at WOT? how much increase in top speed? thnx in advance for your opinions :D

Re: To turn the props in or out?
I have tryed switching and have mine spinning in . But would rather have them turning out. If you want to try swap props and put the brives in reverse and run it . BUT to dock it around other boats could get interesting. up might see one mph on top . But will not handle as good docking.

leave the props spending outward............inward keeps the ass of the boat in the water, also harder to park. Tom

I kept my props spinning outward rotation but instead of running 32 labbed bravo 1 I tried 30 pitch 5 blade Maximus and lost 4 mph at WOT. Will stick with the Bravo 4 blades top mph is what I'm looking for

Re: To turn the props in or out?
Mine were originally spinning in. Docking sucked big time, so I swapped them. Huge difference/ improvement. 2 weeks ago did some prop testing with different props, pitches and rotations. All testing was done in a 2 hr time period.
I swapped them back to spinning in looking for a bit more speed, just in case my lack of experience was the problem when I 1st got the boat. Nope! docking still sucked. Made a couple WOT runs anyways. Lost 2 mph, boat felt a little more out of control, (wanted to float around more). Put them back to spinning out, got my 2 mph and better control back. Strange why I lost the speed when turning in, goes against the golden rule. |

I gotta tell ya switching the props to spin out was the best thing i did.
I look like a pro around the docks, I can park her on a dime, and the boat runs 82.3 on GPS with full tanks and flat water. And handles great. Joe :rolleyes: |
