Hello everyone, I am brand new to this for him but I knew it was the best place to come for the answers I need.
I bought a typhoon age w/RealSense about six months ago. I recently crashed it and had to purchase two replacement “A Arms.” I received the arms and did all the repairs yesterday. After re-securing the upper shelf and tightening all of the screws underneath to hold it down, I was installing the propellers to go out and make a test flight. I started with a “B Arm”... when I got to an A Arm and when I reached out to depress and install the propeller, I instantly noticed that the button was different and there was no way my propeller was going to fit. After looking at it for a few moments,
I realized that BOTH new replacement arm motors on them are completely different than the original motors, four of which are still on my Typhoon H (see attached photos.) It never occurred to me to check because I literally had no idea they made two different motors. Ok, there’s the backstory. Now to my question:
Are there propellers that will fit on the new motors (there must be?) And, if so, is it ok to use them along alongside the four original motors? Basically, it’s air worthiness.
I ask because I desperately do not want to take everything apart again. Not fun!
Thanks in advance for any wisdom you can offer!
