Default Frontier Update

I have had quite a few people ask about the 2104/Zuke 175 combo.

I have not posted anything yet because I have been testing out props for LAM to try and find the right prop for this combo. I have tried 3 props so far with the 23 pitch Suzuki being the best so far. Here are the numbers for that prop.

1 person half tank of fuel top speed 54.1 mph, cruise 4000rpm consistent 35mph

3 adults full tank top speed 48.5, cruise 32

Hole shot is very good under both conditions.

I got the 54 at 5800rpm so we are thinking with the right prop we can get closer to the 6000rpm without to much slip.

We tried a Suzuki 21 and a power tech 21 but both of them hit the rev limiter with a lot of throttle left and much slower speeds.

If any prop pros have any suggestions feel free to throw them out there.
