I am having a hard time finding a prop reamer big enough to ream the props out for my MVVS 1.6. Have any of you gotten any ideas for me. I don't have any access to a drill press.
Help??

I don't know the size you need to ream.
Fox puts out a reamer that is staged from 8mm to 10mm to 12mm. I use it to ream out my props for my Moki 180. It is the biggest one I know of. The handle is removable, which allows me to use a drill press.
BTW, if you are playing with engines the size of the MVVS 1.6 you really should invest in a drill press. You can get an inexpensive one from Harbor Freight for around $50.00. Here is a link to one:

It is a 1/3rd HP 1/2" chuck desk top model for $49.99

I use a drill press. I locate the center hole using a bit the size of the undrilled hole, then I go the larger bit to drill my finished hole. Works great for me.
