Aero Tiger .36
« on: July 05, 2012, 01:21:18 PM »
Do any of you happen to have an Aero Tiger .36 laying around to make a couple of quick measurements.
I need to know the distance from the thrust washer face (the surface that is mated to the prop or spinner back plate) to the front mounting holes.
I also need to know the distance between the front mounting holes and the rear mounting holes.
I'm at work right now and one of my buddies here is making up some mounting pads for me.
Thanks

I have one mounted on a profile.  Could take some measurements, but might not be to the accuracy you need.  Since the AT-36 is a Thunder Tiger I would expect you could find the dimensions online somewhere.  If not call Randy Smith, he probably has a dwg.

here..

Aero Tigers were first made from parts of Pro Magnums 36s made in Taiwan
The only change that is external has been the Front bearing was replaced with a larger unit and the case at that point was enlarged and 2 new supports were added, but this is still the same size for most all intents and purposes

Is the prop shaft really a LH thread?  ;) ;) ;)

I wouldn't mind the left hand thread in my MB-engine as I'm running it in opposite (clockwise) direction. The prop has come loose a couple of times and it scares the hell out of me. But for normal direction of rotation, no need for that. L
