Hello
So I have bought a motor (https://bit.ly/3AF1zuW) the actual link is too long so sorry. This motor recommends a 7030 prop but the problem is that the propeller attachment (I dont know how else to call it :) ) is a screw with an M8 diameter and I only find 7030 propellers with other screw hole diameters, a 7035 would also be ok.
So I need a propeller and something to attach it to the engine shaft.
The motor shaft has a diameter of 5mm.
Since I am from Germany, with affordable shipping costs and faster shipping times than 3 weeks.
Thanks for your help.

they are more expensive but wooden propellers will usually have 8mm diameter holes.

Any other idea how I can connect a prop what is not made out of wood
Use a drill to drill out the hole to the size you need. Drills are less accurate than a prop reamer but it will get the job done. With a drill it easy to get a bit off center. You may need to balance the prop
