Just wondered if anyone knows where TFC got the prop for their Gladiator from?-Hoffmans perhaps?-or is it original?

Hi Rocketeer
As you are aware we have a propeller for the Gladiator. We are looking for a second. I would be interested to hear details from the data tag attached to your propeller.
Best Regards, Pete Rushen

They just might, when it starts going backwards!
Flying backwards reminds me of the story of how the Miles M.1 Satyr met its end!

The only slight problem would be that the Glad’s prop rotates in the opposite direction! 😀

That would be a slight problem i suppose!-i wonder if TFC have a plan for it??

Not sure its the sort of thing Hoffmanns make. I offered to swap my Glady Watts one for their Hurri Watts one but no joy….prob something to do with 3 inches missing off one tip of mine!! No worries though as the Glad is suitably similar )though slightly shorter span) than a Hurri.

Wow!-you have a gladiator prop just lying around??-i think you should’ve pointed out that if they cut 3 inches off the opposite blade, it would’ve been perfectly balanced! Dave

ISTR they got a real one in the end…sure David their mastercrafter will answer soon!
