RC Boat Prop Pt2 Decreased Diameter - Detounged, Balanced, & Sharpened

This is the 2nd part to a series I'm working on about propeller modification I am decreasing the size of our proboat propeller hopefully reduce torque roll & increase top speed. The 1st part we detoned the propeller and lost speed so hopefully decreasing the size of the propeller will help our top end.. next video I'm planning on cupping the blades to hold the water better thru out the spin should be pretty interesting outcome.
Hope you guys enjoy the video, hope you learn something in this series about propeller modifications as we journey into the black art of pateller mods.

Puff puff pass 😉 my friend lol

Props to you.

My workshop is my sanctuary in more ways than one, too 😶‍🌫️😌

[@maxxm.108]

Interesting smoke generator 😉🤣 A propeller dyno would be nice ... Some small aquarium closed from the top, a strut mounted to a strain gauge beam or some tilt force sensor, motor and ESC with data logging (current, voltage drop, temperature). I think castle has an esc on offer for speedruners. You would have some point of reference without leaving the workshop 🤔

​@IRONCLADRC I have a proboat formula fastech its got a plastic prop do you think changingbto stainless will be to hard on the flex shaft?

[@Sweetaccord]

Nice video. My other tip is to "polish balance" the prop not file balance. A high effecient prop with a glass polished prop, and a fast prop is a slippery prop. When you can see you face reflected off the prop you have it polished well. 😊

[@IRONCLADRC]

Thank you sir, Wish I had the time to polish one up like that. It took a week to get that prop where it's at now. Haha. Hope you didn't mind me using your phrase "black art" you kinda hit the nail on the head with that one. Thanks for watching.

[@Sweetaccord]

@@IRONCLADRC Hey, no problem. I enjoyed the video and all your work in making them. It's not hard to polish, do it with a Dremel and polish wheel. If you do it evenly you can keep the balance close. It's the ultimate way to balance to perfection. I like the smoke idea. Get a small fan and put in front of the prop to keep it spinning and all you have to do is get the smoke going. Even an insence stick would work. 😊

​@@IRONCLADRCpolishing is extremely quick and easy with a Dremel flapper wheel kit.

nice video,, like it very much,,

[@MrJob91]

awesome video ty

[@LandenDenham]

You do a lot of boat videos

[@IRONCLADRC]

Yeah I do I'm kinda fed up with my RC trucks breaking every Other time I take them out.. POS arrma parts add up

[@LandenDenham]

@@IRONCLADRC that sucks, but don't you have an xmaxx? Those are pretty bulletproof

[@IRONCLADRC]

Yeah I do have an X Maxx and it's actually tough as nails and my 6s kraton is tough as nails too. I've been big into boats lately that's all I can think about you know what I mean

[@LandenDenham]

@@IRONCLADRC yeah, I understand, I'm building a 4s latrax rally and that's all I can think about

[@macdexter7454]

Bro can u tech me how to calibration ztw shark 40a.. My problem after calibration, stick maximum throttle then release to nuteral position the motor spin to much..

[@IRONCLADRC]

Stainless or brass would actually be better than plastic on the flex cable, you can sharpen the blades of a brass prop so less drag & load on the driveline

[@jonathandemaria1865]

Silver solder 56% and white flux is what you need. im in the process of learning how to do .187 cables. The tricky part is getting it brazed without any wobble in it😎😎

[@IRONCLADRC]

I just tried jb weld on a .150 cable lol. I'm curious to see how long it last. Ha. Good luck with the .187 brother
