Propeller and Propeller Shaft Maintenance

CAUTION:

 DO NOT handle propeller 

parts while the fl ight battery is connected. 
Personal injury could result.

Removing and Installing the 
Propeller

1.  Hold the shaft using needle-nose pliers 
 or 

hemostats. 

2.  Turn propeller counterclockwise (looking  
  from front of model) to remove. (Turn the  
  propeller clockwise to install.)

Note: 

You may also choose to use a 

130mm x 70mm 2-blade propeller (EFL9051) 
for a bit more performance from your model.

3. Carefully remove glued spinner from  
  propeller. You may need to cut glue from  
  the propeller. (To reinstall the spinner use  
  a drop of CA or Foam-Compatible CA.)

Remove Propeller Shaft

1.  Cut open the fuselage at the decal on one  
  side of the fuselage and on the turtle deck  
  (top of fuselage in front of canopy).

Note:

 Removing tape or decals will remove 

paint from the fuselage.

2.  While the fuselage is open, hold the white  
  nylon nut on the prop shaft using needle- 
  nose pliers or hemostats. 

3.  Turn the spur gear on the prop shaft
  clockwise (looking from front of model) to  
  remove the nut. 

4. Gently pull the shaft from the gearbox.  
  Make sure washer and 2 bushings are not  
  lost when shaft is removed from gearbox.

Installing Propeller Shaft

1.  Push the prop shaft into the gearbox.

2.  Hold the nylon nut on the back of the 
 prop 

shaft. 

3.  Turn the spur gear counterclockwise  
  (looking from front of model) until the nut 
  is fully installed. Please ensure the prop  
  shaft turns freely before moving on.

4.  Assemble the fuselage with clear tape.

Note:

 Numbers on the propeller must face out 

for correct propeller operation.
