Default RE: NEW to FE? BUILDING a boat? What's a LiPo? Look Here FIRST!!

Hi and MANY thanks for this great thread! I am just getting back into boats and figuring out The Electric Thing.

I'll be starting out with a simpler lower-performance planing boat. Conventional hull design.

IsThere anything similar for that class of boat? I understand much of what is here is applicable.

I have sized props for fullsize boats with 200HP etc. Diameter / type from prop mfg guidelines, PITCHfrom calculating RPM, speed, and slippage.

I don't see anything specifically about PITCH here. Mostly just diameter. What am I missing??

Thanks!!
