Technical Performance
The E-flite Propeller 12 x 4 is engineered using proven aerodynamic principles and precision manufacturing to deliver consistent thrust and efficient power conversion across the operating envelope. The 12-inch diameter provides substantial thrust output suitable for a range of E-flite aircraft designs, whilst the 4-inch pitch ensures efficient energy transfer from motor to air, minimising waste and maximising flight performance. This propeller is compatible with various E-flite models, including aircraft in the Turbo Timber range and other compatible airframes. The construction utilises quality materials engineered for durability whilst remaining lightweight enough to minimise rotational inertia and strain on motor bearings. Whether powering a high-wing bush plane configuration or other E-flite airframe designs, this propeller delivers the performance envelope these aircraft were engineered for. Proper maintenance of propellers, including regular inspection for cracks, deformation or imbalance, is essential for safe operation and optimal aircraft performance. Replacement at the first sign of damage is recommended to prevent vibration, handling changes and potential motor strain.

Compatibility and Applications
This E-flite propeller is designed as a direct replacement for compatible E-flite aircraft models. To ensure perfect compatibility with your specific airframe, we recommend checking your aircraft's instruction manual or matching the part to your model's product code (for example, E-flite Turbo Timber 1.5m). E-flite publishes comprehensive documentation for all their aircraft, clearly specifying approved propeller sizes and part numbers for each model. RC Model Shop's knowledgeable team is always happy to help you identify the correct propeller for your specific aircraft and advise on fitment or suitable alternatives, so please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about compatibility.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What aircraft is the E-flite 12 x 4 propeller compatible with? — This genuine E-flite propeller is designed for compatible E-flite aircraft models. To ensure correct fitment for your specific aircraft, consult your model's instruction manual or contact RC Model Shop's team. We can help identify the right propeller for your airframe, whether it's an E-flite Turbo Timber 1.5m or other compatible models.
- Why do I need a spare propeller? — Propellers are consumable items that gradually degrade during normal flight operations and can be damaged by impact or running into obstacles. Keeping a spare propeller in your flight box ensures you can continue flying if your primary propeller becomes damaged or worn, minimising downtime and maximising your flying time.
- How do I know if my propeller needs replacing? — Inspect your propeller regularly for visible cracks, chips, deformation, warping or discolouration. If your aircraft exhibits increased vibration, unusual handling characteristics, or reduced performance, propeller damage may be the cause. At the first sign of damage, replacement is recommended for safe operation.
- Is this a genuine E-flite product? — Yes, the E-flite Propeller 12 x 4 (Z-EFLP1240UE) is a genuine, authentic E-flite component manufactured to the brand's exacting quality standards. Purchasing genuine spares ensures perfect compatibility, optimal performance and longevity.
- How quickly can I receive this propeller in the UK? — RC Model Shop offers next working day delivery options for UK customers, ensuring you can get a replacement propeller quickly and get back in the air sooner. Orders placed before 5pm typically dispatch the same working day.
- What is the difference between 12 x 4 and other propeller sizes? — The first number (12) refers to the propeller diameter in inches, whilst the second number (4) is the pitch in inches. Larger diameter propellers generate more thrust but require more motor power, whilst higher pitch propellers provide more speed but less thrust. The 12 x 4 specification is optimised for E-flite aircraft to deliver the correct balance of thrust and efficiency.
