Hi!

I’ve been searching for a propeller to my Jet Stream 800 for quite a while now.
I can’t find the specific measurements in any instructions maunal and my previous propeller got scattered in 1000 pieces. :cool:
Do you know the right measurements required to find an apporopriate propeller for my boat? It is not modified...

Thank you!

Hi Hans
Can you tell us something about the boat? How long is it .What does it have for a Motor/motors? Do you run it on 12cells?Whats the prop shaft dia? The orginal Kyosho props were not all that good anyway. With eneough information, a better,faster and available prop can be found. n.h.schmidt

Hi n.h.schmidt

The measurements for the boat are
Length 880mm
Width 205mm
Height 150mm
Weight 1.850g

It runs on one single 7,2 V battery. I don't know the shaft dia. and can't look it up right now but i've read somewhere that a "40mm 1.4 pitch" should work for the boat.

Hi Again
The orginal Kyosho props were ok but,its easy to do much better. I would bet that the shaft on your boat is 4mm dia . All the larger Kyosho boats seem to use 4mm shafts. You can't go wrong using a Graupner CF2317.42 K series prop. I needed I can supply you with a U.S scource for Graupner props if you have trouble finding them . n.h.schmidt
