I need a prop adapter for a 3.17mm motor shaft. The motor is at the back of the plane "pushing" I've seen some graupner and aeronaut props with 8mm and 6mm bores that I would like but they recommend a "spinner" adapter. That is for a front mounted engine I would assume and too compicated and heavier than what I want. I'm looking for a simple conversion type adapter that I would mount on the back of the plane. Also I had a question about the thread direction. I would assume that a front mounted adapter should have an opposite thread direction from a rear mounted one. Is that an issue? So do any of you guys know a good place to buy what I'm looking for?
I don't see any reason to reverse the threads as long as you tighten everything properly.
Contact any of the spinner manufacturers for more details and part numbers. We can provide names if needed.
