Coyote, as  I usually only use ccw props on me tri's,i had to bodge some cw ccw props for the quad, found a bag of 10" rotor blades off a long dead cotra heli, so spun up four hubs in the lathe cut the blades  down to 10" dia and so far they seem ok.Well whats the point in having a shed full of toys and not using them LOL    Tony
