  Hey

  Each prop turns in the opposite direction of the other. If you are looking at the module from the rear. The right prop will turn clockwise and the left counterclockwise. Now, if you have changed your prop for any reason you must verify that you installed the correct one from your spares that you get in your kit. Since each one turns in an opposite direction, their geometry is a mirror image of the other. If you install the wrong prop your POWERUP will generate reverse thrust and will become unflyable. Please check out this article showing how to replace your propeller and figuring out the right one to install on the correct motor.  https://poweruptoys.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360055750712-Replacing-a-damaged-propeller-on-your-POWERUP-4-0
