New Z-9 prop selection

[Sam Timmons]

Just picked up my Z-9 last week. Haven't got it broke in yet. Considering changing from a 25p tempest to a 25 p fury. Any input? New to Nitro just swapped from Triton. Also any advice on motor height?



Thanks

I have the fury on my Z-9 and carry the Tempest as my spare, both are 25 pitch. I have ran both of them on my 250 opti, I havent changed motor height yet but by changing the props i did pick up 2-3 mph on the top but the biggest difference i noticed was in the fuel use, At a slower cruising speed about 60 or lower the Fury burns less fuel than the tempest. At the top end the fuel consumption gets tighter but the Fury still does better. You will also feel the fury react alot quicker, makes the tempest feel almost slugish.
