I used the epoxy metal stuff, with a wrap of duck tape over the top.

I mixed up two small balls, pushed them onto the prop, then pushed the magnets into the balls and smoothed the epoxy around the magnets.

i drilled a small hole the same diameter as the magnet and glued it into that leaving the magnet about half thickness proud





Time for a change!

Shallow hole in prop adaptor will be fine rather than prop tube itself.
