Precision spinners are a very neat solution to an engineering problem - how to create a folding prop unit which combines the prop holder, centrepiece and spinner into one unit. They may seems expensive at first glance, but when you add up the cost of all the components if bought separately, they are a quite economical solution. Three varieties are available: two from Aeronaut and one from Graupner, all with slightly different characteristics.
Aeronaut Precision Spinners

These provide a metal backplate with a collet type prop adaptor, and a plastic spinner front that screws into place. A centrepiece from the Aeronaut range is required to complete the set. Click here to see the centrepieces available.

Aeronaut precision spinner
Cracked your spinner cap (like mine in the photo)? I now have two sizes of Aero-naut spinner cap in stock: AN-7251/13 fits 36 & 38mm spinners and costs $4.95 and AN-7251/13 fits 40, 42 and 45mm spinners and costs $5.50. I also have the Graupner 42mm spinner cap GRP-6041 for $6.75. I am chasing a cap for the popular 32mm Graupner spinner.
