    Does anyone know where I can get the four bladed prop and spinner for the "Old Crow" ?

      Overall it is a good model. It flys well. It's big enough to see well and has enough thrust to do whatever you need in a scale warbird. I use two flight modes, one with neutral trim for takeoff and another with a lot of down trim for flying because it is always tail heavy. You can add (a lot) of weights to balance it but is is already a heavy airplane. The gear is big and is strong, but it is mounted very far forward so if you glue it in too tightly you risk ripping out the leading edge in a bad landing. If and when you rip out an outer gear door you can duct tape it back on by taping both sides.You can purchase the pins that connect the strut to the retract separately if they get too bent instead of having to replace the entire gear. The ginormous 16x10 prop may look somewhat dorky when it is still, but gives it good punch and produces some really cool Mustang-like propeller chop that drowns out the electric whine. I also have the 4 blade for when it is static. It is possible to run it on a 6S but be careful to use a small enough prop or the ESC will not be happy, or upgrade to a 100A ESC. Carry some power on landing so you don't drop it onto the runway.
