APC has them,,, as a matter of Fact, he's the only one that has them! Now that I think about it,,, his C/F props are for engines that are able to turn 22,000+

For my Q500 MVVS,,, I have found that the APC 8.8x9.25 with the short pipe and long header works the best for me out here in Sunny So. Cal

208 mph with a V-Vector and a MVVS .40...............

If you could hit 160 mph with any prop I would be amazed.

I would have liked to see the Dive and Tailwind of a quickee that was going 208.

I would recommend that you contact Morris Hobbies so they can give you the details on the equipment needed to go 200+ with a V-Vector.

The props you are probably looking for are at [URL=http://www.supercoolprops.eftel.com/]Supercool Racing Propellers[/URL]

An MVVS 40 will not take a quickee to over 200mph. I think this type of plane could be clocked at 208mph in a DIVE with a QM40, or FAI motor with really good props and pipes, like that of supercool. Typical quickee speeds are in the 130-170mph range, depending on motor. I believe the 7 out of 10 referred to is in a MVVS vs Rossi debate. A Nelson, or Dub Jett are two typical quickee motors.

Kevin-

I'm not sure what you are trying to prove. If you know what motor it was and equipment, then fine. However, I would find out exactly what prop you need. There are probably only a few places to get them - APC and Supercool have been suggested already. You might want to try them. However, unless I am mistaken, no MVVS that I know of puts out the power of a Nelson, or similar. Having the right prop doesn't always equal speed. You need the motor to turn it.

Yes, the web site may have said that it went 208.... But note that it does not say with what equipment! Only says clocked at 208mph... Advertising can lead you to believe things that are not necessarily true. Yes, I would not doubt that the plane has been clocked at 208mph. However, they are trying to sell the plane by saying it is fast and they do not mention with what particular motor.

MVVS's are great motors. I'm not convinced that they are as powerful as nelsons, but, like I said, they could surprise me.

Take a look at this link... One person bought the motor and has not been able to get it to 21,000 rpm. Looks like you?

http://morrishobbies.com/product_reviews_info.php?products_id=98&reviews_id=22&osCsid=52ff2cab91f6365df2215da0ccabbea0

Like I said, advertising is funny sometimes. You probably can make it turn 22,000 with a 7" diameter, 6" pitch prop... They don't tell you how you how they got the 22,000 rpm. For $170, if this turned props and rpms as good as it seems the Jetts and Nelsons wouldn't be selling as good as they are.
