Check Propeller Mount Tightness. "Check"

[Fancher9-76]

These three screws need to be checked often, there are 12 total, or What I did is used blue lock tight on all. After the first 4 hours I noticed from factory that of course this maintenance needed to be done immediately. Now after every check there is no movement. Be sure and not put much torque on the tiny screws, think micro, but snug

I am assuming that these are just allen head screws? are the metric? I have an industrial set of both in my tool box, but I probably should pick up a small set to keep in my kit. I also just checked my lens cover and it was loose, so thanks for the heads up on that.

You'll need a 1.5mm Hex bit.

No problem, just want to help keep everyone flying and happy

Just be careful as loctite can make plastic brittle.

Hello all just to make this clear, lock tight is only used on the threads of the tiny screws. It's a very simple procedure, any extra left on parts, motor, etc just wipe off afterwards

I bought a P3Pro that "didn't fly right"... turns out he didn't tighten the screws up good enough when he put the prop guards on. Took them off, replaced with the originals and it flies great.
