This video shows a FT 009 RC boat equipped with a larger prop. The black prop shown in the video is the stock one and the red prop is slightly larger than stock. With the larger prop installed, the boat obviously runs faster but the run time is reduced. Also, the battery and the ESC both get much hotter.
