replacing the propeller on the super cub
Hello,
I am new to flying and had my first crash. The propeller broke and I cant find any literature on how to change it. Does anyone know how to fix the propeller! Thanks

RE: replacing the propeller on the super cub
Could you be more specific about the airplane? There are a lot of Super Cubs out there.
The propeller is attached one of two ways:
1. It is a simple press-on fit. You'd need to gently pry the propeller off.
2. It's a bolt-on. You should see a nut and threaded shaft protruding from the front of the propeller.
There may or may not be a spinner on the prop. It probably slips off.

RE: replacing the propeller on the super cub
if it's the hobbyzone supercub, the spinner is just pressed on........just pull it off. you will then see a bolt that just needs to be loostened to remove your prop. good luck...........
ps......those spinners are on pretty tight when the come from the factory.......you might need to tug a bit.
