hi paul,     do you have an address for the n.z. co that makes 3 and 4rotor e-shafts.  i am hoping they will be interested in making some single rotor shafts also.  i am sure the market has to be much greater than any other configuration  but these companys sure aare hard to convince.  thanks  walt.

No that message came from someone else. We had the Aus web address for an outfit
in Melbourne.

I think this is the one you were referring to.

You were asking about prices on some of these items.
Might be of interest to others as well.
