<div style="FONT-SIZE: 16px; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma, new york, times, serif; RIGHT: auto; COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); FONT-STYLE: normal; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent">I have a two part question,</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">Is it beneficial to increase my propeller size to increase efficiency. I was under the impression from my boating days that a large slow prop is more fuel efficient. It should increase battery range and slow down the shaft speed, helping the seal.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">I have a much larger prop left over from boating and I am thinking of using it on Gamma</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">The next question is,,, is there anyone here with the ability to calculate the new rpm for my given prop size and motor hp.</div>
