A Novice Question
« on: January 22, 2019, 13:21:13 PM »
Hello. Apologies for the stupid question. I have an electric self launch glider, which hasent flown in 15 years. I am a novice and recently upgraded the motor to a brushless DYS BE2217 short shaft. I am looking for a shaft extension to fit a folding prop...any suggestions as to how to what extension, shaft, I should be looking at? Thanks

Fred

Hi there, and welcome to the forum :)

Would you have a photo of the front of the glider with the motor?

Just to get an idea, and I’m sure we can sort you out :)

Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!
