Hey everyone - I'm a noob to the RC speedboat world - been doing RC sailing for some time. This may well end up being a noob question.
Just got my Zelos this week - my first speedboat. I was going over things and happened to spin a prop with my finger. I would have expected a very smooth rotation but that's not what's happening. I can feel sort of a bumping, maybe back in the shaft. It's very regular, about 20 bumps per rotation of the prop. Both props do it. Haven't made any adjustments or taken anything apart yet.
I don't know if this is normal. It was a surprise to me.
