Is it big enough?
Hi Guys,
This is my first post and I am in need of some information.
I would like to know the distance from the prop mounting face to the end of the shaft on this product?
http://www.toddsmodels.com/product_p/hp-adap-32xl.htm
In other words how much stuff can I put on and still tighten the nut? I am intending to use it for a ducted fan application where the fan is 19mm thick.
Thanks in advance for any info.

RE: Is it big enough?
I'd hazard a guess at around 12mm.. that's what a comparable MP Jet long adapter allows you. It would be very unusual (and perhaps dangerous) to try to mount an impeller on a stock collet adapter anyway. Typically EDF impellers come with their own specific adapters which are designed to prevent slippage at the extremely high rpm EDF's run at.
