I agree; his prop ideas were the 1st thing that made me notice him.

I did a little digging, since his personal web site didn't show up in 
the Google search. I found an old email listing his web site:

www.geocities.com/vjaqua

There's a page on how the rotary works, and another on prop selection, as Ed mentions.

Is there anyone out there that can archive useful info from this site? It might be nice to have the prop info & possibly some other stuff on the wiki.
