Paul,

I'm building a Mossie, where did you get the 3 bladed props from?  Are they handed?

I've dug all the bits out of my Twinstar and built them into the Mossie.  It's getting there but still a week or two away from flying.

Thanks

Bucks

I trust the black bag was just to make sure all the bits made it back to your workshop for reassembly.

Yeah most of its glued back together again now just needs a bit cosmetic tidying and the radio put back in. Also gotta order a new prop adapter,dont look too bad considering the front of it completely smashed she will fly again.

Paul--  I've used the handed GWS props on some of my twins and they work well.  None of the pulling off to the left noted, just a straight-as-an-arrow climb after a good hard push.  I missed the issue with the plans but I got a good deal from someone local on the FSK Mossie.  That'll do for now.  Good luck on the post repair flights.
