(RD28) RD28 - Shredder: MAS 6x4x3 Props and Adapters

Published: Sat Apr 14 2012


So some thoughts on the Suppo motors; I like them, and I use them a fair bit, however, they QC is not up to par, 2 of the 4 motors I just bought had shafts of abnormal length, and two of the 4 prop adapters dont fit properly on the shafts of any of the 4 motors. So the prop adapters that came with my Suppo Motors....EPIC FAIL! Lucky for me I bought a handfull of 3.17x5mm Prop adapters from GLB, and those coupled with some spacers as washers from my Mainstay Hacker Style motors allowed me to mount them on the shafts. The spacers were needed becuase my choice of props were a bit to thin to engage the adapater and make it friction fit on the shaft (These are collet style). Further, I had to dril out the Master Airscrew 6x4x3 props to 5mm so they would fit, but in the end, my Franken Bolt will probably be a superstar. Its looking pretty slick ;-)
