Help!
VVRC/RCGF Prop Nut Thread size

Hello,


I recently obtained an VVRC 26 , which looks a RCGF 26. I was told that the thread on the prop shaft is 8x 1.25 same as a DLE 20. The jam nuts from my DLE do not fit . Can anyone pls tell em what that thread size in fact is ? Is it possibly 8 x1.0 ? That is just a guess on my part .


Thank you in advance for the help.


Allan

Are you referring to DLE 20 or the VVRC 26 ?

My Rcgf is 8X1.25. I was told by a spinner manufacturer that they had seen the coarse and fine threads on these engines at random.
