How to mount 6x3 prop to 2mm shaft?
How do I mount 6x3 prop to 2mm shaft?
I have been going to one of the LHS and they are just getting into electric, so they don't have all the options yet.
I have a 6x3" windsor propellor that has a 2mm hole in front but a 4mm hole in the back.
How do I mount this to a shaft of a brushless 400 motor?
The only prop adaptors they have are for the larger props.

RE: How to mount 6x3 prop to 2mm shaft?
You can get some props that have different inserts that sit in the larger hole at the rear to convert them to different shaft sizes, - a bit like a reducing bush, but they usually come with the prop itself.
Failing that, you should be able to get a prop adaptor the right size from an online shop somewhere.
You'll just have to do a search for them.
See if theres anything suitable on these, I know that your in Aus, but you should be able to get some the same / similar in your country.

Thankyou, I tried a search but wasn't sure of what information they gave
It looks like there is a option at Hobby-Lobby that will suit the job that has some collets available.
thanks again.
