Nate, It sounds to me like you have a spun prop. That is; the prop hub is pressed together metal in metal like putting two doughnuts one inside the other with a rubber bushing between the metal. when the bushing breaks, it saves the motor shaft. The prop will still spin, but under load the inner hub turns and the prop slips. This causes the loss of propulsion. Just a thought, Tailgunner
