What is the current 101" AT-6 Props that are being used for racing? It used to be the 2 bladed w/ metal center hub APC but it looks like that has changed for USRA races now.

What is the spinner that is being used for the above props? It used to be a special spinner cut to clear the center prop hub. The P/N used to be TT-3312-B but what is the new one being used?

What header is currently the one that people are using? It used to be different it looks like looking at different pictures. I cannot find my P/N of the one I have that has to be replaced due to my latest stupidity.

If you have any info on what works best for setting a T-6 up for racing I would appreciate it. Things I am looking for are best practices for control rod/push-pull systems, servo mounting, control horns to use etc. I want to build a contendor in my next ship and I would like any input into what it takes. If you have any close up pictures of servos/control horns that would be awesome as I believe a picture is worth a thousand words.

I would also like to know what I should use as a regular practice airplaine. I think years ago some were using a good old Lanier Stinger beefed up to take the high G turns. I want to get my mind and fingers trained without having to risk a race plane all the time to do it.

Also, if anyone knows of a good system to use for a 'muffler' so that I can bench run the heck out of my two G-62's as soon as they get back from the repair shop I would like to hear it. I want to get at least 5 gallons of gas apiece through these engines before I put my next ship up in the air. I believe someone told me once he use some kind of flexible hose running down into a 5 gallon metal can to run one in. It might have been David Bridi and I don't really remember as it has been too many long years since I was first going to get into the sport.


Thanks,
Brian
