    Prop bushing on ultrex

    The plastic bushing that goes between the housing and prop on my ultrex is rubbing making a loud noise. Anyone run into this issue. On the parts list you buy it all together. I took a buddies off his fortrex and it fits back snug like it should. So wondering if it’s just bent possibly. I did hit a limb about the time I noticed it. Shear pin is still intake. So I hope the prop shaft is still good. Any idea or someone who has the same problem.

    If you mean the part that is the diameter of the motor and is integrated onto the prop, I rub that back and forth on some cement to file it down and make a little extra clearance, mine had rubbed also.. new.

    Yes that’s the piece. Does it move with your prop as it turns.

    I am not sure if it is machined or glued, but John Jones recommended on a similar post to take some supper glue to get it back on. I saw on TV the clear Gorilla glue, that might work too.
    After all they glue glass with it.

    yes it moves with the prop... it is maybe held on with a few dabs of super glue.
