Christian Lucas never tells the truth. The 4140 wont be driving a 65 mm prop with 8 inches of pitch at 40,000 rpm. So far the 41 series powered boats on you tube are not fast at all!!!! plowing around in the water.
A 65mm prop with a tether boat pitch wont track straight either its going to prop walk ALOT
They guy is insane. Because again the motor is mechanically limited to 35,000 rpm specified directly at Lehner. Christian should stop lying to the hobbyist!!! HE hasn't run a boat in over 20 years so this drive is just a photo of nonsense the drive isnt going to go into anything animate.
Even as a boat motor it hasn't achieved anything extraordinary so its definitely a last choice for the air with its heavy self. at only a 41mm core.
The HK 4225 was more power dense at its weight.
SO.....
He has made some poor calculations for the forums.
