I'm about to begin the installation of the Warp Drive prop. Can anyone tell me what the following means, "the airfoil always faces forward on your craft". The directions were pertaining to the prop flange or squash plate. I looked at both and don't see anything significant to indicate it needs to be facing a certain direction.
I have attached three photographs. The first I will call it the Pre rotator drum. The second I am guessing are the squash plates and the third is the Hub plate. Please correct me if I'm wrong. There is also a thinner black squash plate. I think the company may have sent an extra silver squash plate but not sure.
The first question is the prop is attached through the rotator hub using 5/16ths inch bolts. The bolt holes in the rotator hub are only 1/4 inch. Can I safely assume that I am supposed to drill out these holes to 5/16ths of an inch?
In the instructions, it doesn't say which squash plate goes where.. Any recommendation where each go?
Thanks,
Chap
