Here are some tips.

First off, the triangle count is what matters, so unless the mesh is triangulated, don't give us the polycount, in fact even then give us triangles.

Second, your file structure is wrong. These shouldn't go directly in models, they should have their own sub folder like props_steffoo or props_propeller

Third, you can easily cut the texture size down to 256x256 with no noticeable difference here, and the texture itself, specifically the coloured tips of the propeller blades, could stand to be a lot sharper, they look awfully blurry from your screenshots.

well the mesh is triangulated,
i dont really see the problem with the structure, it works fine
its 1024x1024 now, that might be a bit big but since its only 688 kb, that res will keep the line sharp i guess. and the blur is possibly the screens

Just a tidbit of information, as mentioned by Sel anyway: the word is propeller, not propellor.

it can be spelled at both ways
though ive updated it because the physics model was corrupted
