Propeller change help!

[hartnoll833]

Hi guys help needed. I have changed my props. Removed the screws etc as I've upgraded to carbon fibre props.

On one of the arms the 3 holes on the motor where the screws go in; 2 of the threads have gone. What can I do. Only one screw will now hold and I cannot fly it.

Any suggestions please....?

Thank you, Lee

You're going to have to replace the motor cage. They're relatively cheap and easy to change. Here's a set on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Parrot-Bebop-Dro ... motor+cage

You shouldn't have needed to remove any screws to change props. Are you sure you bought the correct ones?

I agree with waterLanding,

Purshase a kit, eBay sells motor kits, And bebop tools.

The problem are these junk carbon fiber props, I’ve purchased a couple of sets myself and like you ruined my screw portion of the motors. These 3rd party props are thinner were they mount, needing to tighten the screws more than normal to keep them secure. This is how the threads get damaged, over tighing. Toss these 3rd party props in the trash, order parrot props only from the parrot store.

Good luck, stay away from these defective 3rd party props.
