I just sent out a revised instruction sheet by email, but apparently I don't have the email address of every purchaser. If you did not get one, email me ([email protected]) and I will forward a copy to you.

Basically I am cautioning that the screws must engage the prop hub enough but not too much. Failure to do so will result in either stripped threads or broken bolts resulting from the prop not being tight. It may br necessary to use longer bolts, they are 5mm bolts.

I advise against using 10-32 screws, the hub is aluminum and using the wrong screw can aggravate the problem of stripped threads.
