Title: Robbe Blue MArine II original prop size
Post by: tica on April 29, 2019, 08:45:50 pm
Hi
I bought a Robbe Blue Marine II kit at the club 2 months ago, non started kit only missing the decals or so I thought (only paid 9£ for it)
I tested it yesterday and it almost burned out the K22 speed 600 and 45 amp ESC, looking at pics of it I can see that the prop is not correct, it looks like it is to high diameter(40-42mm) and wrong pitch/ blade appearance.

Any one knows what the original prop for this one  was ?
RegardsCarsten

It is possible that a 40mm surface prop is used on that boat...but if it's blowing fuses try something smaller

Thank for the answer
I have a Robbe Lightning with the same Z-drive and K22 600 motor, it runs with a 35mm / 56mm pitch prop with no problems on a 25A ESC, it weighs 300gram less but I'll try with that prop size to see what it gives.
