Odds are that if you order a size appropriate spinner that comes pre drilled it will fit both 30cc and 35cc.
You apparently didn't read my last post, beyond skimming it. I said "One source that showed up is Tru-Turn. IIRC, that company closed down over a year ago. I would recommend CALLING any of the companies you want to work with to make sure they are still alive and well before placing an order". I didn't say the parent company was done, just that Tru-Turn was done. This was something that had been reported right here in the forums.
Here's some of their website's information page, last updated July 2022:
Tru-Turn is suspending manufacturing in consumer model hobbies as of April 2022.
To the Weekenders, Competition Pilots, Builders, and Designers throughout the World – we thank you all for allowing us to offer our high precision American workmanship to this fantastic group of people sharing a common interest in flight.
• ROMCO has ceased manufacturing of consumer level components.
• We will continue to offer available inventory & modifications through Jun 30 2022.
• Items available after June 30th will be offered from finished parts inventory only while supplies last.
• ROMCO must focus all manufacturing capacities on domestic Industrial, Aerospace, Commercial UAV and Military production.
