Default RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

well... I ain't never gonna be a contender right?.... and if my plane weighs 11 pounds, or 11.5 pounds.. prolly I couldn't really appreciate the difference...
so... wouldn't it be pretty easy to make a Counter-rotater from two Co-Axial Outrunners turning opposite directions? Seems to me I saw someone do this a while back.... Outrunners are getting more efficient right???

Seems a lot easier then a Gear box... at least from a cost standpoint....


hmmmm???
