What Prop nut for a TF Giant Corsair with a DLE 61cc engine
Anyone out there know for sure who makes a finished acorn shaped prop nut that will fit a Top Flight Giant kit plane that has a DLE 61cc engine, and what adapter I may need for it to fit the engine?
Thanks a lot for any info. you may have.

The bolt pattern should be the same as the 55 so the stock spinner should fit from TF/True Turn.[/QUOTE]
Chris,
This is the only T/F brand, prop nut I can find.
It is intended for the Giant scale P-47 ARF it sounds. I dont want to use a conventional spinner like on a P-51, I am trying to keep things looking like a Corsair as best I can, by using a acorn prop nut. I have a Dave Brown 5" spinner for my P-51, it will fit the engine, just not the plane. The shaft of the DLE accepts a 5mm threaded screw inside the prop shaft (not sure what pitch the screw is though) . The P-47 prop nut is a different shape than the Corsair also.
You happen to know where I might find a prop nut for the Corsair?
I did just find a prop nut for the .61 size ARF Top Flight makes but it will not fit the DLE and is also too small.
