Default Alpha 1 prop seems loose??

Normally the prop does not move, the prop shaft it is mounted on will have
some play front to back. That is probably what you are feeling. It should
have no side to side play. When it is underway the thrust from the prop
pushes the shaft to the front.

Hello,

Anyone know if a little freeplay/movement on the prop normal on an Alpha
1?

Basically what I mean is I can wiggle the prop in and out a tiny bit in
neutral. I checked the prop which doesnt appear to be loose.

TIA!

Jim
