FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

1. What does the "6045" number signify? The "60" is the 6.0-inch diameter, and "45" is the 4.5-inch pitch.

2. Will these fit my 2204 2300KV motors? Yes, this is the classic performance setup for 6-inch FPV drones.

3. How do I tell CW from CCW? The CW prop pushes air down when rotating clockwise (viewed from top); the CCW rotates counter-clockwise. Markings often include "R" for CCW.

4. Are these more durable than pure plastic props? Yes, the glass fiber nylon is much stiffer and more resistant to fatigue than standard ABS or plastic.

5. What if my motor shaft is 5mm? Use the included 5mm adapter ring to center the propeller perfectly on your motor shaft.

6. Are these factory balanced? They are high-precision molded, but for cinematic use, we recommend a final manual balance check.

7. Do they reduce flight noise? The stiff material and wingtip design help minimize the high-pitched "scream" common in softer plastic props.

8. Can I use these on a 5-inch frame? No, 6-inch props are too large and will strike the arms or the other propellers.

9. What happens if I install them upside down? Lift efficiency drops by ~60%, and the drone will likely flip or fail to lift. Markings should face the sky.

10. Is 4.5 pitch too aggressive for a beginner? It offers more power but drains the battery faster than a 3.0 or 4.0 pitch. It is great for growth but requires better throttle management.

11. Do I need a specific prop nut? Use a standard M5 or M6 flanged lock nut depending on your motor's threaded shaft size.

12. Can I use these on 4S batteries? Yes, as long as your motor/ESC combo is rated for 4S with 6-inch propellers.

13. Will these fit on a DJI Phantom? No, those require proprietary self-tightening hubs.

14. What is the raw center hole size? 6.0mm, adjustable via the provided adapter rings.

15. Are these suitable for long-range flying? They work well, but 2-blade props with lower pitch are generally more efficient for endurance.

16. How many props are in a pack? You get one pair (2 propellers: 1 CW and 1 CCW).

17. Can I use them for a pusher-style plane? Yes, just ensure the leading edge is facing the direction of motor rotation.

18. What color are they? These are matte black.

19. What is the hub thickness? Approximately 9.5mm.

20. Can I ream the center hole to 8mm? Yes, but it is recommended to use the included 8mm ring if your shaft allows, to maintain balance.
