I'm working on the pic but it may be a week or two before I can get to it.  I won't be making it to Sig this year.  My buddy Dave and I are on the F2C team going to the World Champs in Hungary so all my flying time is going to that.

You may need to be more specific.

Top to bottom: Tornado 10-4 (10 x 3.5 per Wilks data) 3 blade  27.6 grams.
S9 Stalker replica 13 x 5.25 at 24 grams
S7 Stalker replica 11.375 x 5.25 & 23.4 grams
R3 RevUp replica 11 x 5.5  & 26.8 grams

These are the weights with the stickers on.  The 3 blade has been flown, so no sticker. I need to pitch it up a bit for my Magnum XLS .36. All these are "finished", and from what I see up close, I suggest you get them that way! Also, I haven't checked to see if these are the current prices, but I bought them a bit over a year ago from Burt Brokow at NW CL Regionals. I forgot to grab the CF profile LG legs to put in the pictures. So sue me... LL~  I think these Wilks props make Bollys look really crude. The back side of the blades have about the last 2" to 4" with carbon cloth reinforcement to reduce splintering on those buzz job takeoffs...a very nice touch. Carbon cloth is VERY expensive.   y1 Steve

PS: I showed these to Alan Resinger (our Stalker dealer) and Keith Varley this weekend at Stunt-a-Thon, and they were very positive about the quality. Alan said he wanted the Rev-Up 11.5 x 5.5 for his Stalker .51. I think the 11" will be good on a .46LA, but that plane is needing some repairs.
