Installing the Propellers
When mounting, ensure that the gap between the bottom of the propeller cap and the motor is no bigger than needed to insert the propeller removal tool.
Mount
marked propellers on the motors with marked landing gear.
Mount unmarked propellers on the motors with unmarked landing gear. -
Detaching the Propellers
Insert the propeller removal tool between the propeller cap and the motor. Be sure to hold the motor while detaching the propeller.
Always detach the propellers
using the propeller removal tool. DO NOT remove the propellers by hand, or you
may be seriously hurt, and may damage the motors. -
Installing the Propeller Guards
Push each propeller guard inwards to wrap it around the landing gear. Make sure it clicks into position and that the protruding parts of the landing gear securely
fit into the notches on the propeller guards. -
Detaching the Propeller Guards
To remove a propeller guard place your finger and thumb as shown in the figure below.
With your thumb, gently apply a twisting force to the lip that protrudes from the propeller guard where it wraps around the landing gear. DO NOT use excessive force when removing propeller guards as doing so may damage the aircraft’s arms and you may get hurt.
