Hi all
Where can I buy GWS slowfly props in the UK?  I did a Google search but to
no avail.

Cheers

Could try
http://www.hillcott.plus.com/

Phone them if they are not on the web site.  Otherwise my
local shop has them, Spire Models 01722 415541

I assume you mean the orange props as used on Pico Stick etc.

Irvine or Perkins are handling them, so most LHS's can get them for you.

If stuck www.aircraft-world.com is good price, fast delivery (5days
typical) and efficient.

I am pretty sure that of the MO companies I use galaxy models

and west london models both stock a fair number.

Thanks for all the replies - I managed to find them at Galaxy models.  I am
building a Shockflyer (Superstar) with an AXI 2208/34, & 3s Kokam 350 LiPo.
I'll let you now how it goes.

Cheers

Be careful of using them at TOO much RPM. The APC sloflyers are
generally better performers, but are limited in RPM (see
www.apcprops.com, from memory)

Since you provavly need a prop adapater anyway, I'd tend to use APC.
Puffin models have a good stock

As I recently found out when I tried a GWS 9x7 on an AXI 2212/20 on 3 Li-Ion
cells... never seen a prop flutter before...
