Do not use to much force on the screws, if you can't get them just heat the end of the tool with a cigarette lighter for a few seconds and then insert it in the crew. Let is just sit for a few seconds and then try removing, should work. Just be careful of not heating to much.so 5 out of the 8 screws we're able to come out. I stripped the other. What's the best way to remove the screws now??? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
That is exactly what I did on one stubborn screw. Just be very careful with the Dremmel when cutting the plastic prop holder yoiu don't damage the motor.
Pictures of the whole operation please !Update. It seems that good karma and clean living has paid off. One of the guys over at Advexure saw my situation and they stepped in to offer me a CCW motor for my I2 that will arrive tomorrow. The guys from Florida Drone Supply also offered help which is appreciated. This is one great group and my hat goes off to all that offered suggestions and assistance. Now all I need to do is take the old motor out.

Just interested in what you find as you go through the process. I am sure you will share any tips along the way...TC
Well had my first full day with the new props. So far they are awesome! Only negative thing I can see about them is that when you first engage the motors the aircraft does shake for about a second until the blades spin up fast enough to balance out the props. Even setting them up to the deployed position before engine start up still results in this. But to be honest really no big deal. Did a quick shoot of a local Taco Hell I mean bell and ran 2 sets of batts before hand to test out the props. Aircraft flies great and responds as it should with carbon fiber props. Also was able to modify my landing mode GPC case to make it fit. It's not pretty but she's in there and secure! Love these props!
I received mine also but had a few jobs and didn't want to fly on the unproven (to me) props yet. What did you use to trim the foam? I am thinking of using a brand new fillet knife.
I used a long razor blade knife and a drywall saw. If you want to do it right though I heard using an electric meat cutting knife will give great results. Leaves one heck of a mess and is a total PITA but totally worth it if you want to keep your aircraft in a hard case.
I have the german flight mode case and they suggested using a ceramic knife for cutting the foam but the idea of the elecreic carving knife appealsI used a long razor blade knife and a drywall saw.
