Larger MJ prop

[orcafood]

Would it be possible to put a larger prop on the maxi mod (with a modified shroud of course) that would be closer in size to the vortechs prop?

Yep, you just need to find the point where the force of the prop is just less than the strength of the magnet so it wont slip in the housing. I bet the ones made are already pretty close to maxed out though. Maybe not.

The mod kit for maxijet white the wite propeller is capable of 2200gph,I think it is enough work for the pump.do you need more than 2200gph with un-controllable powerhead?

NOPE. the white Dumas prop is as big as you can go on the MJ without running into startup/chatter problems

The reason that I wanted to have a larger prop was to make a wider flow pattern. Could power be sacrifised for a wider/more diffused flow pattern. I would think that a revised shroud would fix the start up problem of a larger prop. Does anyone have a link to somewhere online where I could get a wider prop then the Dumas 3004?

What about changing the Pitch of the prop?

Look up RC boat suppliers such as Tower Hobbies.

Would changing the pitch alter the diffusion of the flow? Which pitch would be ideal for widest flow?

The pitch would make more folw or less .
