Mabuchi motors and brass props?
« on: October 31, 2008, 03:50:49 pm »

What's the next size down from a Mabuchi 380 guys? Would that be a 280? If so, anyone know where I can get a pair of them? All the online shops I've looked at don't seem to list them, only 380's/385's/540's/etc....way too big for the Mighty Mo.

I also need a handed pair of 20mm five bladed brass props with a 1/16th" plain hole (not threaded) and a similar pair of 20mm four bladed brass ones...any ideas?

Cheers,

Rich

For the props try G Sitek - best to ring him rather than rely on e-mail or the web site.

There's a bus from Leamington station I think. And if you are on the train you won't be tempted to buy a big new boat kit.

Don't you beliieve it Phil....I always did  give into temptation too easily.    :embarrassed: %)

Besides, the cost of the train fare from down here to up there would be prohibitive, it would be cheaper to buy a new car!
