The short answer is yes. But they use different spinners. The spinner is the white plastic hub that connects the prop to the motor shaft. This shows that although you can use the propeller of Mustangs with 400mm wingspan, or any other Volantex warbirds RC airplanes, you need to use the original spinner for 500mm
