I bought a small Solas prop, and it has 3 small pins in it for
protection, similar to what the standard shear pin would do.

There are 2 sets, with 1 set being actual small springs, and
the other set being plastic pieces. They recommend the springs
for use where the prop is not subject to high chance of damage,
and they recommend the plastic pieces for use when damage
could be more frequent. The plastic will break more easily.

Has anybody had actual experience with these pins, and any
recommendations? Thanks.
