I've had a check this morning, and the screws are tight. I took one out to see what size it was, and they are little dinky shoulder screws, M2.5 by the looks of it. The plastic prop adapters seem to be the issue, in that the counterbored holes in them are slightly deeper than where the head of the screw sits when tightened up. That means no matter how tight the screw is done up, there will always be a slight clearance between the screw head and the plastic prop adapter, which will allow it to move slightly,.
The screws have blue threadlock applied already, so they shouldn't come loose. It's a bit odd that they can move though. I guess that is better than tightening up against the plastic, and risking it crack though.
If bought locally I would suggest you take it back to the retailer and get a replacement, but check in shop and make sure all OK. If not get a refund and try somewhere else. |
