Good news – Today I’m expecting delivery of the Airmaster prop that was ordered in February. So I had brought back the switches and circuit breakers and thought that whilst waiting I would wire them up.

Each circuit breaker is linked to one or more switches depending on the circuit design by making a connecting wire with 22 or 18 AWG wire with a couple of crimped female spade connectors.
The Aveo air vents were next and are secured by screwing the front and back components together.
At last! I have finally received the Airmaster prop. On first inspection the hub and spinner box looked fine and undamaged and the inside…
looks good too…
However the box with the blades in had quite a substantial gash in the front.
Luckily, although the cut went through both the outer and inner boxes, whatever caused it never hit the blades – Phew!
One of the carbon fibre blades, looks very swish.
