[NSRCA-discussion] DUMB E-Power Question

[Jon Lowe]

Saw this last weekend with a friends airplane.  Turned out that the motor shaft size adapter in the backplate wasn't flush with the rest of the backplate, so instead of the whole backplate contacting the front of the motor, only the size adapter was contacting the front of the motor.  Filed the adapter down to be flush with the spinner backplate, and the problem was solved.

The sticky backed sandpaper trick works also if the above isn't the cause.  Make it as big in diameter as the contact area between the front of the motor and the backplate.

Okay - Saturday night laughs - have new OS 375Kv for Monolog 70.  Nice, powerful, 1400W setup on 6S.
 
Now how the $%(* do I hold the hub whilst attempting to tighten spinner backplate and prop...this is driving me nuts, and NO, I will *NOT* grab vise grips or channellocks.  
This is a serious question, though - I have tried everything I remember....please...somebody help???
