Title: Help! Loose propeller
Post by: rajjames on October 24, 2016, 12:10:31 PM
Hello,
I am trying to build a new quad. I have this racrstar 2205 2300KV motors and gemfan 5030 propellers. The propellers fit the motor shaft nicely. But the motors come with nylon lined nuts, which do no screw completely down the shaft and hence cannot hold the propellers vertically tight. I have attached the pic for reference.

(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161024/60d8d8779be746befe4f3b03350ed4bf.jpg)

Is there a better way to tighten the props(like using washers, etc)?

Any idea/suggestion will be helpful.

Oh, my mistake. I felt that the nut was already tight enough, but it wasn't. Feeling silly:(

Thanks rastsaurabh:)

No issues the prop nut supposed to be tight so that it does not become loose in air.
