Hello Mike! Thanks for the response. The replacement prop is seated by just pushing it on the motor's shaft. The replacement prop didn't come off, but rather the factory-installed original did when I hit it. I'll try reversing the orientation of the prop. Thanks again!

Hi, I'm new to the site and hoping someone has some experience with this issue. I've flown my Ranger 600 about 12 times now and am really enjoying learning how to fly it. Great beginner plane for sure. However, I noticed that after about the 6th time flying for about 30 minutes (using 4 different batteries) the plane is slower on every battery than when first purchased. The light on the charger typically goes out within the first 30 minutes to an hour of charging. But I charge them all for the 3 hours regardless. Not sure if the problem is battery related or not. Also, I replaced the prop after it flew off one day when I hit it with my finger. Not sure, but it may have been around that time when the speed slowed down. Based on what I read about the replacement prop, I'm pretty sure I put it on in the correct direction with the stamped characters facing the rear of the plane. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! And happy (con)trails!
