Default RE: help! prop keeps falling off

I never use anything but my 4 way wrench- I just tighten it as tight as I can with that on plastic (APC- MAS) props, not problem.

Sounds like hydrolock, or a worn out spinner backplate.

DB's right you can overtighten a wood prop, what I was refering to was to check the tightness before each flying session.
