Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What flex shaft size is compatible with all coupler sizes in this set?
A: All four coupler sizes (3.17mm, 4mm, 5mm, and 6mm motor shaft variants) are designed to connect to a 4mm flex shaft, making this a versatile solution for most standard model electric boat drivetrain configurations.
Q: Is this flexible coupling suitable for use in water-exposed environments?
A: Yes. The coupler is constructed from stainless steel, which offers excellent resistance to corrosion and moisture — making it well-suited for RC boat and other marine model applications where exposure to water is expected.
Q: How do I choose the correct coupler size for my build?
A: Simply measure your motor's output shaft diameter. Select the coupler size that matches your motor shaft (3.17mm, 4mm, 5mm, or 6mm) — the flex shaft side is universally sized at 4mm across all variants.
