Description
F5K is a performance-demanding class of RC gliders. So the weight and durability matter a lot here.
If you are looking for an F5K Spinner and a folding propeller take a look at the option provided by Vladimir’s Model and CN-Models
This set weighs only 7 grams weighted with the blades and is designed to fit the widely popular drone motors with M5 shafts. A lot of pilots around the globe are using similar combos for F5K gliders and other small RC electric gliders.
The dimentions of the spinners and the shape of the prop blades differs depending on the manufacturer, so please, refer to the comparison between the two, highlighted on the pictures.
A spinner and prop by Vladimir’s Model will be a great choice for:
– Falcon F5K
– Maverick F5K (designed for this spinner in particular)
– Shaka Slope Gldier (designed for this spinner in particular)
A spinner by CN-Models will suit best a Sabre F5K. The motor mount for the last is designed for the perfect fit with this exact spinner.
6×4 carbon blades make a perfect addition to the spinner and will provide unbeatable performance.
It is lightweight and durable of high RPM, so you can run this unit on both 2S or 3S LiPo setups on high Kv motors.
F5K Spinner Features
The spinner is plastic and matches an aluminum yoke which makes a perfect combination with these carbon blades. The combo usually comes balanced out of the box so won’t need any additional adjustments.
These F5K Spinners also feature a unique prop shafts security system. The yoke is designed to match the plastic part of the spinner and secure the propeller blades shafts preventing the last from falling out while spinning.
In addition, this provides a yoke offset that makes for a better blade alignment while folded (not in use, while gliding).
