Anyone running a prop different than a Go Devil prop on their SD? Brands, Pros, Cons, see any performance issue over stock prop? |

I'm slowly working on some prop stuff for my BB GDSD. The problem with using any other brands' prop is the angle the shaft enters the water with. It changes a lot and the prop needs different characteristics to operate efficiently at such angles. For now I'd recommend finding a prop shop to tweak your stock prop to your needs. I'm assuming you're running the stock 2 blade? |

Stock 3 blade. 11x12, just wanting something that'll push a load better. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk |

Have a little pitch taken out of the stock prop and add some cup on the last 20% or so of the blade and you should handle a load a little better and maintain RPM. Slightly sharpening the blades helps also. Not razor sharp, but making the entry point into the water a little thinner. Just makes it easier for the engine to turn it. A little goes a long way with any prop adjustments. |

I have a worked 3 blade 11x12 and a worked big blade for my 23 GDSD. The 3 blade is better in the top end, big blade pushes a load better and lost about 1 mph on the top end. If your looking into wanting a big blade with prop work PM me, I ran it 2 times and can't keep it off the rev. limiter no matter how many people I put in the boat |
