I think there were some pictures of CL planes in one of the last Model Aviation issues with one blade props. Might have even been the last issue, but I forget.

Adrian:

I have a simple request. On the day you change you avatar, can you post the full size pic along with it? My eye sights are going bad trying to squint to make out the details. It is a definite health hazard getting your eyes 2inched from the screen. However, no matter how close I get or how hard I squint, I still can't make out the details.

That was what I was thinking that they use them on the race planes. I just wasn't sure about it. I thank you guys for the information. It was only a question I had.

Yes go www.bolly.com.au there you can buy one and try to download the bolly book. it gives some info. but the idea is true dont forget when a prop turns it becomes like a rotataing disk which can act as a barrier or a break!!
