Is there a "correct way" to install prop cotter pins? In other words should the ends be bent to the left and right over the prop nut or should it be rotated 90 degrees and the long end bent forward over the nut and the short end bent backwards over the threaded part of the prop shaft? Does it really matter from a "rotating mass/physics" point of view?
