COMMENTS:
The threaded prop adapter included with the Yardstik was designed for use with the optional APC propellers mentioned in the instruction manual. The kit-supplied Great Planes prop (black) has a slightly thicker hub than the APC props. When installing the Great Planes prop, please omit the aluminum prop washer-securing the prop on the threaded shaft with the prop nut only. This method is perfectly acceptable. If mounting an APC prop, please use the included aluminum prop washer between the prop and the prop nut.

Only one receiver is required depending on the channel of the radio selected (Low band Ch 11-35, High band Ch 36-60). Please note the Accessory Completion Guide lists both Low and High band receivers. Channel selection is left to the modeler's preference.

For replacement prop, use APCQ5015.
Uses a 3mm prop adapter GPMQ4600

NOTE:
*The S3108 servo will not work because the mounting holes will not line up correctly.
