Solved First build-prop installation

Hello everyone, sorry if this is a very beginner question but I just reached the final step of my millennium flerken and I’m struggling with the prop installation and I’m confused whether I’m missing a piece or if it’s supposed to just be the prop and then the nut securing it on. Also it’s quite difficult to get the nut on and the nut doesn’t go on very far unless I used a lot of force which I’m not sure I should commit to. I’ve attached pictures of just about how far the nut goes on without too much force. Please let me know if I need to buy something else or what I should do…

You have it on correct 👍 the reason the nut is tight, is because it is a locking nut, so it shouldn’t loosen during flight (but it will with a wrench). Just tighten it using a wrench it pliers 👍

Hopefully the prop is thick enough for the above to happen otherwise you have to get some precision washers

I myself wouldn't use pliers on it. Should be a standard metric wrench size and you get much better torque
