Unusal Props

[John Pavlick]

Eddie,
 You may have actually stumbled onto something. If these are what I think -
It seems these props are currently in demand by 3D flyers - I could be wrong
so check it out. I remember one of the guys in my club talking about Rev-Up
props that you can't get anymore being "worth a lot of money". The 3D guys
like big disks with low pitch. The one to use now is the 12.25x3.75 APC.
This is on a light 3D plane with a .46. Don't use them as paint stirrers.
Put them on Ebay and see what happens. You might make enough money to buy
some good pattern stuff.
