Replacing the Propeller
The propeller is threaded onto the shaft of the gearbox.
1. To remove the propeller, use needle-nose pliers or hemostats to grip the shaft.
2. Spin the propeller counterclockwise to remove the old propeller.
3. Thread the new 140mm x 45mm prop and spinner clockwise onto the gearbox shaft.
Replacing the Prop Shaft
You may need to replace the prop shaft in the gearbox should it become damaged. To replace the prop shaft:
1. Gently grasp the white nylon nut located at the back of the prop shaft using needle-nose pliers or
hemostats.
2. While holding the nylon nut, rotate the spur gear clockwise. The prop shaft will thread out of the nut.
3. Gently pull on the spur gear and the prop shaft will slide out of the gearbox.
4. Thread the 140mm x 45mm prop and spinner onto the new prop shaft by holding the spur gear and
turning the prop clockwise.
5. Slide the new prop shaft into the gearbox.
6. Place the nylon nut on the back of the prop shaft. Spin the prop and spur gear counterclockwise. The
nylon nut will thread onto the prop shaft.
7. While holding the nylon nut in place, gently turn the spur gear counterclockwise to ensure the nut is
snug.
