    Prop question

    Was running a tempest plus 25p that’s was blueprinted. Ran good but had my rpm’s lower than I want em. Was at 5500 wot most I got get at 66. Looking at goin to a trophy plus or bravo 1 trying to get more lift with the 4 blade and dropping to a 24p anyone ran either of these. It’s goin on a 2016 19trx elite with a 225 opti pro xs.

    Not the same boat or motor…..but my boat greatly prefers a fury 4 to a trophy plus. I run a 26p tempest plus & a 25p fury 4.

    How did that 24p Tempest Plus work out for you? I have a 2017 19TRX Patriot with a 225 Pro XS. Currently running a 24p Fury 3 blade and I am not real fond of the holeshot or lift. I tried a 25p Tempest Plus(cause I found one local for a STEAL) and was only about to get 5300-5400rpm out of it at 63mph. Been thinking of trying to find a 24p Tempest to see how it works ....

    did you measure ptp to know where you are? is the prop vented so engine rev's up to 3500-3800 on take off?
