ORIGINAL: messer

Guys,
Saw the suggestion for the Dave Platt spinner for the CMP Bf-109. Is this an aluminum spinner. I heard the one that comes with the kit is no good. I'll be using an OS 2-stoke 160 engine. Has anybody tried the Dave Brown spinners?,

The Dave Platt me-109 spinner is an aluminum backplate with hard resin dome that is a bolt thru the middle setup. I have two and they work great. Cost is $57
Dave Brown does not make a spinner shaped for an me-109.

The stock spinner is a thtrow away item unless you get an aluminum backplate to fit it. That being said, even with an aluminum backplate thats been milled up on this thread, if you have a prop strike, it will disintegrate the black plastic dome into many pieces. Ask me how I know
