RE: Pitcairn PCA-1A
Hello Mike,
That box tail was meant to direct the prop wash upwards toward the rotor for the purpose of getting the rotor to rotate up to speed. I've been wondering if we could do this with our models for a pre-spin?
By the way, I saw where you've removed the 24 inch by 2 inch blades from your order form. I wonder why?
See you in September,
Joel
