Sorry moth I didnt mean to sound like it couldnt be done because I'm sure it could but unlike the BBI Corsair prop the 21st Corsair prop is just harder then hell to remove without breaking it. Like I said I tried on my old Corsair and didnt have much success. Give it a try and you might get lucky.

It can be done, I've done it when I did a custom and turned the three blader into a four blader. The hub is glued on. Get some pliers and twist it off. Once the hub is off you will see screw head in the center of the propeller. Just unscrew it but be very carefull because the plastic pin that it screws into (this is the part that goes back through the engine and allows the prop to spin) will want to fall back into the fuselage and then good luck ever getting it out or back through the engine. I put a clip on it to keep it from falling back in. Hope that is clear enough.
