HELP........ please
« on: January 22, 2011, 06:32:49 pm »

 >>:-(  Right  >>:-(  just went into shed to tinker with my Ranzow build and I've broken one of the propellers  >>:-( and now have to order replacements  >>:-(
How do I know/workout which thread to buy i.e. M3,M4,M5 etc. I've got this gut feeling that it's M4 but can't find anywhere in the instructions that confirms this, so don't know where I got this from. So how do I tell?  {:-{
 <*< I knew I hould have stayed indoors  O0 :embarrassed:

Measure the diameter across the threads, that will give you the thread size if its a metric thread, eg, 4mm dia = m4 etc.

For absolute certainty, get an m4, m5 m6 etc nut from B&Q and see which one fits and Bob's yer Auntie :-))
