Technical Performance
The FTX Glader Turbojet Internal Propeller represents sophisticated engineering optimised for high-speed water-based RC hobby use. This component operates within the boat's internal turbojet propulsion system, a design philosophy that differs markedly from traditional external propeller arrangements found on standard RC boats. The internal configuration allows for a more streamlined hull design and reduced water resistance, contributing to the Glader Turbojet's impressive speed capabilities. The propeller's dimensions and pitch have been precisely calculated to work in harmony with the turbojet's thrust characteristics, ensuring efficient energy transfer from the motor system to forward motion through the water. Materials and construction methods employed in this component reflect FTX's commitment to durability and performance, designed to withstand the demands of regular recreational boating and competitive water-based RC activities. The propeller's internal mounting means it benefits from protection within the boat's structure, reducing exposure to damage from water debris or shallow-water contact compared to traditional external propellers. For RC boat enthusiasts seeking to maintain their Glader Turbojet in peak operating condition, this genuine FTX component provides the reliability and performance consistency necessary for enjoyable and consistent water-based RC experiences.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FTX Glader Turbojet Internal Propeller a direct replacement for my boat? — Yes, this genuine FTX component (FTX0736) is engineered as a direct replacement for the internal propeller system found in the FTX Glader Turbojet R/C Speed Boats. It is compatible with both the Red (FTX0730R) and Green (FTX0730G) versions of the 35cm Glader Turbojet model, ensuring perfect fitment and performance restoration.
- What makes the internal propeller system different from traditional RC boat propellers? — The Glader Turbojet utilises an innovative internal turbojet propulsion system rather than traditional external propellers. This design offers several advantages including improved hydrodynamics, reduced water resistance due to the boat's streamlined hull design, and impressive high-speed performance characteristics. The internal propeller is specifically engineered to work within this unique system.
- How often do I need to replace the propeller on my Glader Turbojet? — Propeller replacement frequency depends on usage intensity and operating conditions. For regular recreational use, the propeller may require replacement after extended periods of use or if you notice decreased performance, unusual vibrations, or visible damage. Having spare propellers on hand ensures you can maintain your RC boat without downtime.
- Is this suitable for competitive RC boat racing in the UK? — Yes, the FTX Glader Turbojet and its components, including this genuine replacement propeller, are designed for enthusiasts seeking high-performance RC boating experiences. The propeller maintains the speed and acceleration characteristics necessary for competitive recreational water-based RC activity across UK locations.
- How do I know if my Glader Turbojet propeller needs replacement? — Replace your propeller if you experience reduced top speed, inconsistent acceleration, unusual vibration or noise during operation, visible damage to the propeller blades, or if the boat pulls to one side during straightforward movement through the water. Regular inspection of the propeller helps identify wear before it significantly impacts performance.
- Can I upgrade to a different propeller design? — The FTX0736 is the engineered propeller for your Glader Turbojet's specific turbojet system. For optimal performance and boat compatibility, FTX recommends using the genuine component designed for your model rather than attempting to substitute alternative propeller designs, which may not integrate properly with the internal turbojet mechanism.
