IRIS Prop Screws

Posted by Ryan on April 7, 2014 at 3:46pm

Anyone know what size/type of screws are used for the props on the IRIS? I lost one and am grounded until I can replace it.

    The prop nut is M5

    Star washer is 5mm ID 10mm OD

    Motor mount M3 x 8, use break-able threadlocker

    Are you asking about the nut that holds the prop onto the motor, the the screws that hold the motor to the arm?

    The prop securing nut is an M5 metric nut. While a SAE #10-32 is close and can probably be crammed on, it will damage the threads and isn't recommended. Most hardware stores have at least some metric selection, and it is worth getting the right part.

    I went to Home Depot and bought #10-32 and #10 washer. A 3/8 husky wrench, also bought at Home Depot, worked well to tighten.
