Just a "heads up". I was thinking of replacing all my prop mounts on my motors. I've had the props on and off so many times the tops are getting a bit hinky. The shipping was $17, for 6, so now is the time! Other goods news: they have CCW and CW threaded mounts now! Free Shipping today! And no, I don't work for them, just trying to be helpful!
Good find, Gary. I can see I'm going to have to go to Ace Hardware and see if they have M6 x M10 Nylok nuts for the CCW threads.... (I suspect not, but you never know). Andy.
CW says: Propeller mount with M6 nyloc nut and propeller washer, so maybe we are in luck! Shouldn't be as much of a problem at least, they will self tighten. Just gotta figure which goes where? lol
Oh, just put the nuts on loose and fire up the motors. You'll soon find out whether you've got them right...
Andy: Still remember my Gaui 330, before I got wise and used nylon nuts. Went to take off, and a prop flew off so fast it scared the crap out of me. Also took me 1/2 hr to find it in!
Yeah. I shed a prop on a MK Hexa XL because I didn't put a star washer on in the correct place. It "focuses the mind" when that happens. Also sends a bad message to onlookers when you fire up all the motors and one prop takes off by itself and you end up looking for the nut and chamfer washer in the grass. Andy.
