Can someone clarify the props I have the High Alt. Prop is that the 1235 prop or is it better. Now when it comes to the 5 blade is there a certain one I seen numorus of 5 blade props. I'm getting mix reviews some say I will be fine others say get a different prop.
The 1235 is the high altitude prop.
This is the feedback I got from Axis on the new 5 blade that they offer (which is the OJ TZ-X5):
"It was designed to replace the core prop which had complaints about high rpms, noise levels and low top speed.
Performance – it will pull 800-1000 more lbs (depending on placement) than the Acme 1235 high altitude prop
Speed – both boats above 40 with the 335 CAT
Fuel – running full weight at riding speed the boat is at 3200 RPM
Noise- it is a much smaller diameter so it is quieter than the core prop
This has only been designed to work with the 335. "
From what has been posted about the new OJ prop the results have been positive. A bunch of us picked one up via a group buy so there should be more experiences with it in the coming months.
