Re: Caution Raptor Exhaust Mount
There must be a safety wire attached to the exhaust as per your second picture. If there isnt it will go through the prop! My exhaust hanger blocks have broken in the past but the safety wire stopped it going through the prop ( the safety wire must be as tight as possible in order for the exhaust not to move around too much if the blocks fail or come loose ) Lock nuts MUST be fitted to bolts on exhaust hanger.
Good one
