All these adapters are allow the prop to easily dislodge in an accident. They are held in place by O-Rings. These are not reccomended for high RPM applications. Essentially, if the expected top speed is over 40mph, you should consider using a Collet or Set Screw type adapter. Use your own judgement and good reason here. The best way to save props is to understand they make very poor landing gear. ;-)

This unit has a blind hole for the motor shaft. The front of the adapter becomes the front of the shaft. A 1.4mm nub centers your prop. Made for props designed to press onto 1.5mm shafts. Perfect to get your GWS 3-2 or 3-3 prop mounted with a saver on your brushless motor. We suggest our small o-rings above for use with this saver. The included rubber bands are of poor quality and should be discarded.

RC Prop Savers and O-Rings
On small electric models, a prop saver lets the propeller pivot back on impact instead of snapping, and this category brings together RC prop savers and the O-rings that hold the prop in place. The approach is common on lightweight park flyers and indoor models where a rigid prop mount would be more fragile.
Prop Saver Adapters
The Radical RC radial prop saver fits 1.5mm shafts, and a 2mm MPI prop saver covers slightly larger motor sizes. These mount to the motor shaft and use a rubber O-ring to retain the propeller.
Replacement O-Rings
RRC prop saver O-rings are sold in five-packs across several weights, from extra small and small through standard and heavy duty, so you can tune retention to the prop and model. Keeping spares on hand means a stretched or lost ring does not end a flying session.
