I envy your energy and resourcefulness! Would you consider doing the lightening process on the prop driver and nut for others? Or at least provide some pictures and directions so we can have it done?<BR>

Thanks.<BR>

(Sherline again). I could save more if I could drill and tap the prop-shaft for the spinner nut. This gets the engine close to the DZ in weight. In the power dept., most of the engines mentioned above will be good up to a 17 x 12, The OS 1.60 can handle the 17 x 13 and is very quiet. Less than 90 db over hardtop.</FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" BACK="#ffffff" style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=3 PTSIZE=12 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" FACE="Arial" LANG="0"><BR>
