Definately contraprops.  Like George sez, just hack up an Dragon Bear fer 'em

QuoteHey folks, good news, and bad news.

Bad news first:

I can't find the canopy. Its gone forever.... or at least until I dont need it anymore.

The good news:

Now I have THREE excuses to go buy another Hercules! I've been wanting to get one just for the wings and tail for a 1/72 flying tank, now I can snatch some extra props for an 8-blade setup! :D
Customs Inspections probably has it.
