New Prop Adapters

3689520541?profile=original

I recently acquired some new prop adapters from 3DR. see http://store.3drobotics.com/products/propeller-fastener-and-shaft-kit-for-blue-moto-1 

They require you to replace the motor drive shaft which is simple but not uncomplicated task. To help anybody who wants to do the same I have created an Instructable (see http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-change-the-drive-shaft-on-your-Quadcopter-R/ ) with the use of minimal tools.

I look forward to comments on how I can improve it.

Thanks :-)

  • Bill, I am in Europe , I am only able to select fedex. Is this not right? If so, I will contact sales - thanks.

    You should be able to get USPS. Send a mail to sales@3drobotics.com for help if you cannot see it.
  • Great that these are now available, as I just lost one of those "screw caps" of one of my prop holders. Guess I should have tightened them better.

    Can I order them somewhere in Europe too? Not looking forwards to paying $45 for fedex for a $6 component...

  • Are these worth getting to replace my old ones?

  • Thanks Bill

    @Steven: the motor size specs look the same, so a tentative yes. But ask Jani to confirm.
  • If you order new motors do they come with the new prop adapters.

     

     

  • Are the 880Kv ones compatible with the jDrones 880Kv motors please?
