Richard, in addition to the very good sources that Paul gave, you may also want
to look at Radical RC and Value Hobby in case MotionRC or Horizon doesn’t have
what you need.

I do not know. I always check MotionRC and Horizon first. Hobbyking is likely
to have it but I do not shop from them.
Amazon probably has quite a few sellers if you search.

Hi Paul and the other glider guiders,
Thank you for organizing the glider event today. I had fun (especially on the
first flight but no so much on the last flight). I went looking for a new
folding prop and appropriate blade holder at Tower Hobbies but did not see one.
I went to Heads UP RC and they seem to be out of business. Do you have a
source for folding props? I think my glider needs a 10 inch prop. In my junk
box I found a Graupner brand hub but it has 6 inch total blades. I also found
an aluminum hub but not sure what blades to order.
Cheers and hope to be in the air soon,
Richard Pearsall

A few raindrops didn't stop us and we had a fun glider contest today.
We had 6 pilots, room for more next time so get a glider trimmed up for
next month!
My plan is to hold one contest per month, on the last Saturday at 9 am.
Will try for 11 months a year (skipping December), weather permitting.
We were done by 10 am, so on the day we have the glider contest you can
still do open flying before 9 am and after we finish around 10 am.
