MacRobertson Air Race Line up

How can he screw it up at this stage?
Trying to fix something.

I noticed that I had the props wrong on the Red one. This are the props that I build years ago when I first built the Comet. I had the prop angle like they were counter rotating. No the airscrew was clockwise on both sides. I thought some debonder would let me fix that. so I soaked the part in some, tried to remove the prop from the hub and snap...the prop broke at the hub.
Then I realized the real screw up. I just broke the correct prop. Hells bells. Go for broke and break them all off and be done with it.

I drilled out a really small hole on the prop shaft and the hub, used some .1mm nickel rod to secure and got it glued back together. Already painted up.

2 steps back and 1 step forward is still progress. I haven't assembled the other props yet. That should be no problem if I'm consistent.
