Default spinner question

I don't know if the 3D forum is the place for this but...

I saw in a mag a while back a spinner with an aluminum back plate and a plastic cone. I can't remember where. I know lots of the 3D crew flys saito engins. Which is why I put it here. I need one for a saito .82 on a showtime 50 -- I have searched around but just found all aluminum spinners. Or if you just knew the name of the company that makes one. Then again I could have seen that add after a few to many beers and made the whole thing up

Thanks,

I want a SOLID backplate because I had a plastic one break once -- I have not used a spinner since. Prop comming loose when reving to full throttle is bad. turns out the back plate was cracked. Just glad it was on the ground and not in the air. Now I don't trust them anymore.

Thanks for the links
