So today gregs nooner destroyed my last prop. And I can't get one before tomorrow's race. Anyone have a spare in the 4.1x4.1 range I can borrow to get me in the air? :'(

I have a prop Mike, but the race is postponed due to the weather forecast.

Oh yea the race is postponed is it lol.
Yea 400W/lb should about do it.. But wouldn't a nice round 500 be better?

My question here is how did Greg's Nooner break your prop?  This sounds bad...

If I didn't know better I'd say that was sabotage!

Ummmmm....  did you manage to land after getting rear ended?

If we knew the rpm we could figure the closure rate as you can SEE the prop going forward into the tail of the plane! 

This is just a scare tactic on Mikes part to get us to stay behind him.  I on the other hand will be trying to stay further out in front of him!

My plane was fine. Even finished the 10 laps around the course. The prop got a crack in it and broke afterwards.

You've all been warned... I take no prisoners.  ;)

Mike is flying a nice tight course, right on the pylon poles, beware he is going to be hard to beat!!!

It wasn't my best landing but i only knocked out the firewall

That will teach to fly fast or get out of the way. I think Ken is going to have to get a "move over" flag like they have in motor racing. Mind you if you can't see a model aimed at your ass what chance do you have of seeing a blue flag!!!

LOL

Gee, all Greg did was take one nasty photo of Mike chowing down a hot dog!  Serious retribution!! I think I'll do my laps after Mike has finished his and landed.  Last place costs less!! :)
