Replacement
Should one of the fitted propellers become damaged, it can be replaced by removing the screw from the top of the propeller before sliding the propeller off the motor shaft. Refitting is the reversal of removal. It is important for the correct blade to be placed on the correct motor, or the aircraft will not fly correctly. Each blade is marked with an A or B on the top to indicate which motor it corresponds to.
