Default RE: New CRRC Pro GP50R prototype 50cc

Hi All

I have the CRRC 50 pro R installed in my ESM Spitfire. A great set up and I have had about 12 flights - but - on my last flight I noticed a different noise from the engine. On investigation I discovered that all but 1 on the bolts holding on the the prop had sheared off in the prop hub! I have tried to drill out the left over stubs but with out success and have made a bit of a mess of the hub . Part of my problem is that with the tools I have I was not able to get the prop hub off, but now I guess I have no option to pull the old one and replace.

Firstly has anyone else out there had the same problem? And secondly is there a trick to getting the prop hub off or is it a case of just using a wheel puller?

I would appreaciate any views on the matter

Thanks
