Safety notes

  • Bolt breakage was reported on the 5 inner hub bolts of the Excalibur-5 propeller on SUPER PETREL XP with Rotax 915iS and 916iS engines.
  • Too low a propeller bolt torque can let a bolt loosen; too high can make it break over time. Use only the bolts supplied with the propeller.
  • Read the Canopy Burning Glass Effect service letter, which applies to all XP aircraft.
