Default Hering Prop

I received my Herring prop what a awesome prop. Wont be able to try her out till spring. Whats crazy it cost less than a Mercury Racing lab Maximus prop??? It will be interesting to see how the prop performs compare to the Maximus prop. I be happy if it does not throw a blade at my SCX case like the Maximus did... Upper Case + New Prop = Lots of $$$$$.

Maximus props carry the front end of a race boat more than anything I've ever used...Never tried them in a pleasure application, they may work well for that?! A Merc prop is not even in the same league as Hering. When we did vibration testing on bravo drives; the Hering's had massively less vibration than anything else! Money well spent mate!
Cheers

I had the Hering built to act like a Maximus I hope. I did go with 15-1/2" on the Herring instead of 15-5/8" that I had on Maximus. I went with a 22 degree rake to carrie the bow.
