This genuine E-flite propeller is designed as a direct replacement for routine maintenance and field spares, making it the ideal choice for keeping your RC plane in peak flying condition.
Propellers are among the most frequently replaced components in RC aviation, as they naturally wear down through regular use and can sustain minor damage from grass contact or the occasional hard landing. The E-flite 10 x 5 Propeller provides a straightforward, like-for-like replacement option that restores your model's performance after wear or minor damage. With genuine E-flite engineering and construction, this propeller is engineered to exacting standards to ensure reliable, smooth operation every time you launch your Sportix 1.1m into the air.
Stocking quality RC spares like this propeller means you'll never be grounded by a damaged rotor. The white finish matches the original equipment, and the straightforward installation means you can be back in the air within minutes. For RC pilots across the UK looking for reliable, affordable replacement propellers for their E-flite aircraft, the 10 x 5 Propeller represents excellent value and genuine performance assurance.
Key Features
- Genuine E-flite Manufacturing — This is an authentic E-flite component, not a third-party imitation, which means you get the exact same quality, fit and performance as the original equipment that came with your aircraft.
- Perfect Size Specification — The 10 x 5 dimension refers to the 10-inch diameter and 5-inch pitch, engineered specifically for the Sportix 1.1m airframe to deliver optimal thrust and efficiency during flight.
- White Colour Finish — The white finish matches the standard appearance of the Sportix 1.1m, maintaining the aesthetic consistency of your model aircraft while also improving visibility in the air.
- Direct Replacement Part — Designed as a drop-in replacement for the original propeller, this part requires no modifications or adjustments to fit, making installation quick and hassle-free for pilots of any experience level.
- Ideal for Routine Maintenance — Whether you're replacing a worn propeller after extended flying or keeping a spare in your field box for emergency replacement, this component provides peace of mind and continuous flight readiness.
- Lightweight Construction — Propellers must be precisely balanced to ensure smooth, vibration-free operation, and this E-flite design achieves the perfect balance between durability and minimal weight for responsive aircraft handling.
Technical Performance
The E-flite 10 x 5 Propeller represents decades of E-flite engineering experience in RC aircraft design and manufacture. The 10-inch diameter and 5-inch pitch specification is calibrated for the Sportix 1.1m's power characteristics, delivering the ideal balance of thrust, efficiency and rotational speed. Propeller pitch is critical in RC aircraft performance; a 5-inch pitch means the propeller advances 5 inches per complete rotation under ideal conditions, which has been matched to the Sportix 1.1m's motor and power system. The white colour finish is applied with durable paint suitable for outdoor use, capable of withstanding UV exposure and the rigours of regular flight operations without fading or peeling. Like all quality propellers, this component is engineered for minimal vibration when properly balanced and installed, which is essential for maintaining the smooth, stable flight characteristics your Sportix 1.1m is designed to deliver. Whether you're flying smooth scale routines or engaging in more dynamic aerobatic manoeuvres, having a genuine replacement propeller ensures you maintain the exact performance characteristics your aircraft was engineered for.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the E-flite 10 x 5 Propeller suitable for beginners? — Yes, this replacement propeller is ideal for pilots of all experience levels. Installation requires only removing the old propeller and fitting the new one, with no technical knowledge needed. This makes it perfect for those new to RC aircraft flying who need to replace a damaged or worn propeller.
- What aircraft does this propeller fit? — The E-flite 10 x 5 Propeller is suggested for use with the Sportix 1.1m aircraft. Always verify compatibility with your specific model before ordering, as using the correct propeller size is essential for safe, stable flight performance.
- How long does an RC propeller typically last? — Propeller lifespan depends on flying frequency and conditions. Regular pilots may need replacements every few months of active use, whilst occasional flyers might find a propeller lasts many months longer. Grass contact, hard landings and exposure to the elements all contribute to propeller wear, making spares essential for any serious RC pilot.
- How do I know if my propeller needs replacing? — Replace your propeller if you notice visible cracks, chipped edges, warping, or if your aircraft experiences unusual vibration during flight. Even minor damage can affect aerodynamic efficiency and flight characteristics, so replacement is recommended as soon as damage is detected.
- Will this propeller work with other E-flite aircraft models? — Whilst this propeller is specifically engineered for the Sportix 1.1m, some other E-flite models may use the same 10 x 5 specification. However, always check your aircraft's manual or consult with our team before using this propeller on other models, as incorrect propeller sizing can compromise flight safety and performance.
- Why should I choose genuine E-flite parts over cheaper alternatives? — Genuine E-flite components are engineered to exact tolerances and constructed with the same quality standards as your aircraft. Cheaper third-party propellers may have inconsistent balance, inferior materials or poor finish quality, leading to vibration, reduced efficiency and potential safety issues. Investing in genuine spares ensures peak performance and reliability.
