The Brass Propeller Bearing is a later-game solution to propeller rotation. It’s stronger than the Jury-Rigged Propeller Bearing, and can be used with the Blade Controller or with Sails placed on the bearing. It will not damage Blades over time, even with the ‘Propeller Blade Damage’ config enabled.

Usage
When the Brass Propeller Bearing is powered with Rotational Force and has at least one block connected to it, right clicking it will start its rotation. If a Blade Controller with suitable Blades is attached to it, it will generate thrust, which can be used to propel planes, airships, and other vehicles forward. When its rotation is inverted, it will instead propel the vehicle in the opposite direction. The more blades are attached to its blade controller, the higher the thrust it produces, but it will draw more Stress Units in turn.
The Brass Propeller Bearing may have sails attached to its sides in place of Blades and Blade Controller (although this feature is currently unstable), and it produces more thrust than the Jury-Rigged Propeller Bearing with the same amount of blades. Additionally, it will not damage blades while active, even when the ‘Propeller Blade Damage’ config is enabled.
