Prop Care
Avoiding Prop Damage
It is very easy to damage the propeller by sucking up dirt or rocks when running the motor on the ground
To avoid this, either place the unit on a sheet of plywood or something similar, or use a nice clean area
such as a nicely mowed yard An alternative is to strap the motor on and start it in the standing position
Prop Balancing
Balancing of the propeller is very critical The prop blades are subjected to accelerations as high as 2000
G’s! Therefore, a weight difference of only 1 gram can cause forces as high as 2kg This force will cause
a vibration at the speed of the propeller RPM, and can cause enough vibration to break welds or tubes of
the frame Therefore, correct prop balance is of the utmost importance
Keeping the Prop Clean
Wipe all dirt and oil from the prop when finished flying Oil, if left on the prop for long periods of time,
can seep into the wood and cause an imbalance
Store the Prop Horizontally
When storing the paramotor, rotate the prop to a horizontal position This is because if the prop is stored
vertically, moisture and oils in and on the prop can migrate downward and cause prop imbalance This
phenomenon can only happen on wood props
