    undoubtably as a cost cutting manuver AQ didn't make the shaft any longer than they thought nessessary...so yes some props will not work, while others (like the graupners) are on the margin. I would consider checking the prop nut after each run.
    heh did wonder a triffle...your sentence structure does seem (to me) a bit odd in places...not as odd as some Japenese manuals I've seen...:)

      I had the same prob. when tring a k48 I simple removed the dog drive. and used a dremil to grind a small flat spot on the shaft to reposition the collar. I also used a little locktite. a little time consuming but worth it. I notice that all the hardware rattle loose over time so im constantly retighting the trim tabs, the rudder. etc. so you have to be careful. I already lost the little set screw the hold the rudder to the shaft.

        Oh yes, I'm Swedish, and you'll have to put up with my jibberish if you don't prefer speaking Swedish, LOL :P

        Anyways, thanks a bunch for your help, everything is OK now and I had a great run this afternoon. Now I'm recharging the packs and we'll see what trouble I can get the SV27 into tomorrow :)

          heheh wondered (after you mentioned the non native language) if you might be from one of the 'germanic/scandinavien' countries ...and now we're asking you to speak rc boating :). fear not, your command of english is far better than my knowledge of sweedish. if needed I might ask you to rephrase something(so that I know what the question is...but then I've had to do that with 'native english' speakers ). good to hear that, you're enjoying the boat!

            prop nut

            I had the same problem and just flipped the nylock nut over so the locking part of the nut goes on first to make sure it doesn't want to come loose. It's a little hard to get it started but has worked great for me.
