    Question SABRE FTD Merc 175 4-stroke prop Recommendation

    Looking for input on which prop seems to work best on a Sabre FTD with 175 ProXS 4-stroke ,2 power poles and Lithium batteries.

    What speed and RPM are you getting with that combo or one very similar to it?

    Here is a thread I wrote back when I had a Sabre with a 175 2 stroke. Everything should be similar, just a 1" less pitch in props.

    I figure a 24 trophy plus would be the cats meow. No pun intended.
    I had a 25 on my 175 two stroke and now have the same prop on my 2016 PII.
    I would drop a pitch for the 4 stroke.
    If it hits the limiter you cam always have the prop worked.

    I’m turning a 25 pitch 3-blade Fury on my 175 2-stroke. Since the consensus is one pitch down, may try a 24.
