Default Motor help.

Ok so im new to the out runner motors for the indoor planes.

My problem is that I need to slide that silver shaft so it goes out on the front where my prop adapter will hold on to it. But it seems like they have a little latch on it kinda like a pinching lock that can pop off but I am having such a hard time to get it off.


Any ideas?


Also how do I put that prop adapter on? When the prop spins it seems like it wants to come off???!! Help lol

Hi,
I hate those little spring clips - whereas I only dislike allen key grub screws (Why not square in stead of hexagonal?!).
You'll need some more tools I'm afraid. If you're working at the tiny end of the spectrum you need tiny tools.
There should be a couple of tiny slots for an equally tiny screwdriver flat to go in - but I suggest you prise it off inside a clear plastic bag if you don't want to be grubbing around in the far corners of the floor in search of the escaped part!
Good luck!
