Hi have the WKM FC on the Droidworx AD8-HLE. I have bought 8 of these props.

8 x

Xoar Beech Prop 12 x 6 (XOAR-PJA-12x6)

I have setup my motors to the correct rotational direction but I have just realized that I think I need pairs of props. Is this right???? All my props are the same. The motors that are anti-clockwise, I dont think that they will produce lift even if I turn them upside down. Can someone clarify this. Very basic question, sorry.

Correct - you need 4 "normal" and 4 "pusher" props (a.k.a. CW and CCW).

But keep all 8 of the ones you've bought - you'll be needing spares ;)

ah! that's correct, too :) - the difference is that the PJA prop is thicker/stronger and therefore heavier, which is not good for an MR (inertia is higher).
