I am designing a folding prop hub for 3D printing.  I am getting ready to do the center hub section.  Does it need to be a free wheel hub?  I am thinking that since it folds it does not need to be free wheel.

No freewheel required if you are using a tension stop system to trigger the fold.
All the best
