Overview
The E-flite Prop Spacer: PT-17 (model number E-EFL3364) is a genuine replacement propeller spacer component manufactured by E-flite, a recognised leader in electric RC aircraft and drone technology. This small but essential part plays a critical role in maintaining correct propeller-to-hub spacing on compatible E-flite PT-17 airframes, ensuring your model flies smoothly and reliably every time you take to the skies. Whether you're an experienced RC pilot in the UK looking to maintain your fleet or a newer enthusiast who wants genuine spare parts for your aircraft, this prop spacer is the authentic choice for your E-flite PT-17.
The PT-17 is a 1.1-metre wingspan trainer aircraft available in multiple variants including the BNF Basic with AS3X (model EFL3350) and the PNP configuration (model EFL3375), and this prop spacer is the correct replacement component for both versions. If you've crashed your model, worn out the spacer during normal flight operations, or simply want to keep spare parts on hand for routine maintenance, the genuine E-flite Prop Spacer: PT-17 is essential for getting back in the air quickly. For RC aeroplane enthusiasts in the UK who demand quality and compatibility, this is the part you need.
Keeping your RC aircraft in perfect working order requires attention to detail and the use of correct replacement components. This prop spacer helps ensure the propeller sits at the right distance from the motor hub, which is crucial for balanced rotation, efficient thrust delivery and overall flight safety. Rather than experimenting with makeshift solutions or incorrect parts that might compromise your model's performance, use the genuine E-flite replacement and fly with complete confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What exactly does a propeller spacer do on an RC aircraft? — A prop spacer maintains the correct distance between your propeller and the motor hub. This ensures the propeller rotates in perfect balance without vibration, delivers consistent thrust, and prevents unnecessary wear on the motor. Without proper spacing, your aircraft may experience vibration, reduced efficiency, or potential damage to the motor bearings during flight.
- Is the E-flite Prop Spacer: PT-17 compatible with both BNF and PNP versions of the PT-17? — Yes, this spacer is listed as a standard part for both the E-flite PT-17 1.1m BNF Basic with AS3X (model EFL3350) and the E-flite PT-17 1.1m PNP (model EFL3375). However, always refer to your specific model's manual to confirm the correct part reference before ordering to ensure you have the exact component required for your aircraft.
- When do I need to replace the prop spacer on my PT-17? — You should replace the spacer if it becomes worn, damaged or lost during a crash or hard landing. Regular inspection during routine maintenance is recommended. If you notice unusual vibration during flight that doesn't go away after balancing the propeller, a damaged spacer could be the cause.
- Is this a difficult part to install? — No, the E-flite Prop Spacer: PT-17 is straightforward to install. Simply remove the old spacer from your motor hub and install the new one, then secure according to the manufacturer's instructions in your PT-17 manual. It's a quick maintenance task that most RC pilots can complete in just a few minutes with basic tools.
- Can I use this spacer as a preventative spare part? — Absolutely. Many experienced RC pilots keep spare propeller components on hand, including spacers, to ensure they can get back in the air quickly after an accident or to perform routine maintenance without delays. At just £4.28, it's an economical insurance policy for your PT-17.
- Is this part still in stock? — The E-flite Prop Spacer: PT-17 is currently showing as expected to be in stock from June 27th. You can request a stock notification to be alerted as soon as it becomes available, or place a pre-order to secure your part now with a small deposit.
