Anyone tried another prop besides the yellow ones? Mine doesn't fit the motor real well and it vibrates like crazy. It looks like the prop adapter is built into the motor so you can't change it.

Strange,mine fit good,but I did notice what appeared to be 2 adapters,not sure if that was what they were or how to use them because mine was ok.I used their power combo.

I bought two and they were the same, well one was even worse. It fits perfect if you flip them over lol. The adapters won't fit either. They might fit an APC. I meant to pick up some GWS props at the LHS yesterday and forgot

If your motor came with 3 bands you'll have to use all three, I like one heavy duty band. It has to be pretty tight. I usually put the band on one screw, twist 180 then over the prop hub and twist 180 again before looping onto the other screw. It holds it very tight and creates a pivot point to allow the prop to bend in a crash.

Found some GWS 8x6 in my junk box. Works great and is virtually silent! I'll try the yellow ones with three bands and see how it works. I was running two.

Did you balance the yellow prop?

Balance wasn't the problem, the hole in the center of the prop is bigger than the adapter. It will probably be fine with heavy bands. But it's cool cause the GWS one matches the orange graphics
