<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here's what I do. First let me say this
wasn't my idea, but it works well. I got it from Dave Lockhart.
Remove the sleeve, clean the oil from the top flange, and tack on some 600
grit. You can use the flange as a template to cut the paper to an exact
circle with no overlap. put a little oil in the head and evenly spin the
sleeve back and forth for about 3 minutes. The anodizing will be gone and
the circuit will be made.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I currently believe that the new APC 18.1x10 prop
is the best I've flown on the Mintor 170. Their airfoil experience and the
super wide blade give great efficiency and braking. At 7950 rpm the noise is
low.</FONT></DIV>

touches the rest of the</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-ca></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-ca>
