X-Man- I don't have an answer for ya- but I am looking into a similar type project where I am trying to propel a slow moving boat about 80lbs and I want to go a top speed of around 30mph and do it with electric. I have been looking into low kv motors (leopard 56100), maybe a small-ish prop.
I don't want a gearbox
Are there lower pich props available, less than 1.4
Looking for ideas ?
