    Is ABC still making props?

    Why are these so hard to find? Supply is awfully limited. I can't invest in props from Chris or Brian when I'm still in the guessing stage.

    Yes, like many that sell RC boat items it's a side business. My understanding is demand is pretty high right now and Jim is doing his best to keep up.

    You can also send a PM to Walt Barney on IW. Rumor is he might have some...

        Sure I would. I'm running a boat he's never seen before.

          Perhaps... but consider this... all of the Gas Scale Unlimiteds, Thunderboats, Nitro riggers, Big Nitro Twins, etc., etc., etc., that he's helped others with that have caused entire clubs to separate do to some trying to put rule changes in place to prevent boats he's helped from dominating, he had never seen before either.

            The New ABC props are awesome however due to demand there is a wee bit of lead time, in the UK Ive put orders in and have had to wait up to 4 months for them to turn up, luckily i have all the props i need except the 21 hydro which are next on my list,

              if you need an abc prop in a hurry, have a look on hobby king as they have a few small size abc props available .

                Hey Terry,
                OSE is of course my first go to for piece parts.

                Walt may have what you need. Great guy to deal with as well. [email protected]

                As far as I know he hasn't separated any clubs or had rules proposed to keep his stuff from dominating, so no worries there.

                You can also order right from Jim if you can't find what you need online. [email protected] 614-475-4247
