Product description
Efficient Design
Designed specially to be propelled by rubber bands.
Perfect for STEM Projects: Designed specifically for rubber band-powered creations, these 6-inch plastic propellers are ideal for DIY airplanes, helicopters, and propeller-powered cars.
Easy Assembly: Each propeller features a built-in metal shaft with a small hook for rubber bands, and a plastic mount to attach to craft sticks or balsa wood pieces up to 0.135 x 0.35 inches.
Durable Construction: Crafted from high-quality, semi-flexible plastic and sturdy steel, these propellers are resilient enough to withstand minor to moderate impacts.
Optimal Performance: The propellers are engineered to generate ample lift and thrust so your projects will fly high. Experiment with single or double rubber bands to adjust energy release rates.
Educational Value: Ideal for classroom activities, science fairs, or home experiments, these propellers help teach fundamental principles of physics and engineering.
Customers say
Customers find the propellers work well, with one mentioning they were perfect for a Girl Scout event, and appreciate their quality and ease of use, particularly with popsicle sticks. The fit is generally good on popsicle sticks, though one customer notes they’re too tight to freewheel properly. Customers find them durable but easily breakable, and while one customer reports their helicopter flew over 20 feet high, another mentions they don’t fly at all. Customers consider the product overpriced.

They work!
I was pleased with these. Used them in a STEM event at local primary school in the UK – the kids loved them. Younger children will need some time practicing winding them up before launching.

Peppy little propellers
I used these propellers to make helicopters with kids. When they didn’t break they worked awesome. I found if you put a lot of tension on the rubber band the propeller would snap between post and hooks holding piece. Also, the fit on a popsicle stick is pretty snug which is great to ensure it stays on but it also has broke on me because I put too much force on the wrong part of the prop. So, as long as it is not overwound and your careful placing on the stick then these are a great deal. The really do work well and made the helicopters fly far. I made 1 rubber band plane and it flew better than a store bought. I would buy these again.

100% Recommend
These were so much fun to use in a class about flight. They fit well on popsicle sticks and the kids were able to send them all the way to the ceiling. Would definitely recommend.

Terrible product
If I could give these a 0 star I would. They are complete garbage. There is almost no structure that holds the propeller shaft to the mounting bracket. One soft landing and they are broken…

The propellers worked great for our Girl Scout event
The propellers worked great for our Girl Scout event. They were sturdy and easy for all the girls (ages 5-11) to use with minimal adult help. They all loved making rubber band helicopters.

Great product
These worked perfectly with our flying turkey challenge. Easy to use and mounts easily on popsicle stick.

Poor quality
Easily broken. If you put them on the front of a plane they will break upon landing… which defeats the point. It cannot be super glued or fixed, which is an even bigger bummer because the fracture plane is inevitable, it works great for the first 30 seconds though!

Very accurate, well balanced and good product…i would recommend this product.

Bought for Beaver craft activity, task was to make a flying machine. All were in good condition on arrival.They fit nicely onto standard lollipop sticks (got 50 pack of wooden ones from wilcos for £1). I also bought some sellotape, elastic bands and paperclips (to loop elastic bands round to at the bottom) for this activity so that the helicopter design could be made easily.Overall the quality of these is good, they were loaded with high tension from many elastic bands, thrown around and smashed into things as they flew, but none of them broke.Due to the cost, (~£13 for 10) we will be re-using them (rather than letting the kids take them home) so they have been a worth while investment for the group.I would recommend these.

I purchased these for a STEM project that I gave my Grade 6 students. Many, almost all of the nose bearings snapped during the model plane trimming process. I wouldn’t buy these again.
