Is my flying buddy's rappy 50, is a new set of funky carbon blades. From the pic, looks like he over tighten the screw and stripped the thread. Lucky no one is hurt by the blades.

No guys the threads look that way because when the grip departed the spindle it pulled the nut with it causing the stripped threads. On the last report I say like this a guy was using some aftermarket spindles that did this.
Don't use Loctite on the spindle. Loctite eats plastic and will destroy the locknut plastic.
