Quite impressive how strong the prop blast is.

Okay... here's what I've come up with... a shortened tension rod and a
custom washer made from j-channel. I don't think it's possible to get
the gap any better. I'm still not happy with the lock nut resistance.
I've got that question in to Vans.. and not happy that the nut isn't
sitting flat, but that's been determined by Vans putting the hole too
close to the bend.

or have others found this? Any suggestions to keep this from backing off
in flight?

Cool video. Static run-ups above 1700 rpm increase your risk of blade damage due
to gravel/sand.
