Prop Saver Eachine Volantex P51D Mustang 500mm
Description
3 versions for 7.8mm, 5mm and 1/4"=6.35mm prop shafts. I've only used it with an APC 5.25 x 4.75. The stock 4 blade prop is 5", I recommend trying shorter props (5.25" and 5.5") before going to 6" so you don't burn anything up. Please comment on what props work well, I don't have a way to measure amps/thrust/speed. To swap the adapters remove the motor cover and take out the 2 small screws. Pull the motor wires out of the foam so there is some slack. Work the motor out and then twist the stock prop adapter back and forth until it comes off. Twist on the new prop saver, it should be hard to twist on. Keep twisting it back and forth until the prop saver is touching the motor. The prop saver screws are 2mm outside diameter, ~6mm long servo mounting screws, likely from hxt 500's. The holes have a bottom so the screws stop at the right height. I've only printed with the ball down, it uses less supports but makes a rougher surface for the prop to rest against. I recommend trying ball up. Ender 3S1, Geeetech Silk silver PLA, infill: 70% gyroid , supports, 0.2mm layer height, adaptive layers, build plate adhesion: skirt Z Seam alignment: random (otherwise prop saver may be slightly off center)
