(The propeller seen in Sonic Generations actually has it's own page on the wiki called "Seed Propeller". Because of this, there is no need for it to be on this page anymore.) Tag: Visual edit |

The Propeller[1] is a gimmick that appears in Sonic Heroes. It is a variation of the Pole that can be used to fly with and is the mechanical counterpart of Flower.
Description
Like its name implies, the Propeller is a device with a three-bladed helicopter rotor on a pole, with each blade having a sharp plating on the outer edge. On the bottom it has a triangular recess which is attached to a lower pole on the ground.
In gameplay, the Propeller lets the player travel to otherwise unreachable locations. When capable of rotating, the playable character can grab onto the Propeller and let it carry them automatically through the air like a hang glider, though the player cannot control where it goes while riding it. Once at the destination, the playable character will release it.
Game appearances
Sonic Heroes
In Sonic Heroes, the Propeller is found exclusively in Egg Fleet. To use it in gameplay, the player has to use the Speed Type character's Tornado Jump (or Homing Attack or Rocket Accel should the player have collected three blue Power Cores) on the Propeller to make its blades rotate and allowing the player to ride it. While riding it, the player can move up and down within a certain area to avoid obstacles or collect Rings and Item Boxes during the flight.
Trivia
- In Sonic Heroes, it is possible to make other characters beside the Speed Type hang onto the Propeller by changing the team formation before touching the Propeller.
