Default RE: JDM FW190

Tom, you can get a spinner from Phil at FighterAces as well, and also from Graham at Tiger Models as well. All of mine are from Barton. My buddy had one of the glass gel-coated cones, and I was always a little critical of it...right up until the point at which the spinner and prop departed the plane in an initial turn...read: destroyed plane. Never was able to discern the true reason for losing it, and it probably wasn't the spinner at fault, but I know that I like the peace of mind the aluminum ones provide me. The additional weight would probably be pretty much un-noticeable as I know my pal flew his Holman substantially nose heavy the first flight, and even with all the extra weight up front, it still flew pretty well...albeit noticeably nose heavy. Just my 2 cents.
