Does this motor come with a prop adapter? (Would use with GWS 9x4.7 propellers.) I presume you need bullet connectors for the wires as well?

Hello Marc,

No, it does not come with a prop adapter but you can use it as well. It comes with 2 nuts, you put one nut, the propeller and then the other nut. It's much easier than any prop adapter but if you wanna put a prop adapter just buy one to fit 3mm shafts. Yes, you do need bullet connectors, 3 pairs (male/female) and a soldering iron.
Good luck

It dont come with an prop adapter. My set of APC prop all come with own adapters to the motor shaft.

This combo doesnt include any connectors, order one of these 10 packs at 3.5 or 4 mm in very low price here: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=9284

It does not come with the adapter, you can put the prop between two nuts. I use this connectors http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=66 because it came without connectors.

OK, how does one fix the motor to the mount provided? Any manual/pictorial representation available on this subject?

weberschi (52%)
I suggest you to drill holes on the provided mount, or cut a plate of balsa/wood/hard plastic and fix to the opposite side of motor mount.

I bought two of these, and am having difficulty removing the circular mount from the back of one. The two set screws that hold it on are either cross threaded or REALLY tight! Any suggestions on a way to remove them would be appreciated.

Does only the shaft turn? ty

erictan (40%)
yes... the shaft turns together with the motor(the one that contains all the magnet and wire)... only the mount does not turn...

I bought this motor and a 3 cell Li-Poly battery. It was working fine until recently. The motor cuts off after about one third throttle. Not enough to take off. If I remove the prop the motor runs fine to full throttle. I have charged the battery. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Double check the connections between your ESC and motor* also, you may have a broken wire between the motor connectors and the motor, or your ESC is doomed.

I've such trouble too. ESC lose sync on 3S lipo after a 2/3 throttle. I changed Timing setting to Medium and trouble has gone. Also it increased power, but motor and esc became warmer after flight.

I put this on my Slowflyer and the performance is incredible. Take off is vertical, and it will easily fly around at 1/4 throttle this is a beatifull

Does this motor come with a stick or firewall mount or both mounts?

jvitello (74%)
It comes with a plastic mount. Or at least I think that is what it is. I do not know what to do with it. There are no instructions.

hi, i have two guillow models that are the big 34' stuka and the p47(GWS size type). is this good? I want my planes to be graceful fliers not heavy fast pigs. I bought the bigger 25A combo but i guess it's too heavy with my setup. Also what lipo batts should i get?
