I've used these......GWS props. HeadsUp RC has them in 7, 8 and 9 inch diameter.

CarToon- My version has both motors spinning inwards when viewed from the front, the port motor spins normally and the starboard motor spins clockwise thus needing a reversed prop, which is what mine came with, but with NO spares. It flies like a banshee, but I clipped the port engine's prop on landing and broke it. I called Grayson and he said I'm out of luck.
Hmmm, I think I've had mine new In the Box sitting in storage for about a year, can't remember where I ordered it from.

Hmmm...maybe the earlier plane you have came with counter rotating setup?

Thanks Bamaguy!

Thanks DeLaReef, that worked perfectly!

Don't ya just hate it when you grab a dead battery?

Some days (0 min 57 sec)

Does suck.. Amazing what a bat sitting around will throw at you.. Happened today on my A320.. Gott'er back too .. (lucky).. Boat season coming to an end there Spookeay?

Yep, just about done. Winterizing to come and then a few months off.

... Envious....

Quick cuts from yesterdays windy-ish flights..

Dynam Grand Cruiser Cessna 310 RC Plane Flybys (1 min 30 sec)

OK... No animal activists here .. My one dog likes to chase.. Had to fly as slow as possible .. Did slower and dirtier than this picture, but sis didn't capture..

Pics are small .. Hope all can see..

LOL, good way to exercise the dogs while getting to fly too.

Beautiful backdrop there, CoCg! I'll bet it gets a little nippy there, tho.

Nippy.. Somewhat. Just the wind at times... And Doggies get more exercise than I do with this hobby..

It really improved the performance.
The GC come to the field with me every time, it's such an easy flying plane and looks good while doing so.
Two other guys at our field ended up buying a GC too after watching mine fly.

I'm thinking of getting this plane. What I'd like will a 4s 2600mah or 2800mah fit in the compartment? Also the motor mention here from will it run on the 4s pack? Hobbyking site does not mention 4s for this motor.

I only did a search to fine info about upgrading to a 4s pack for this plane so have not read through the complete thread as of yet.

Thanks for the help

Totally rebuilt my Grand Cruiser after 3 yrs of flying putting her in the tree. I sanded and smoothed the surface, painted gloss white, added a light kit, landing gear kit, and finished with a set of Calli Graphics. Flies as good as new and looks a whole lot better.
