This may sound goofy... but I dealt with this with someone just last week....

.... make sure you are installing the PROP the correct way. Curved surface and markings face "aircraft-foward".

And as noted, if it will not rotate...

1) check/search in RCU here for others with the plane. CONFIRM the CG location. The manuals are many times incorrect.

If it will not rotate at all it might be very nose heavy.

2) Nose gear/main gear location as noted.

ROFL
That's exactly what my friend did on his Bobcat. I had forgotten about that.
