MECOA,
I have a Sky Devil. Just ordered a prop driver for it. I also need a
complete timer assembly. The online order form shows them to be out of stock. Any chance you will be producing more anytime soon?
The bottom of the mounting lugs on my Sky Devil have been machined flat.
Has me wondering if that is original or did someone shave them for some reason. If they did they may have removed a serial number if there was one.
Besides the serial number on the mounting lug are there any other ways
to tell the difference between the originals and your repros? From photos I have seen it looks like the repros have thinner walled exhaust ports than the originals.
Thanks,
Tom

Thanks for the updated information. :)
Based on it I have an original Skydevil.
It has the milled exhaust and the rear cover with dips near top ears.
So, don't hold my breath waiting on a timer. ok :(

You just may have to gasp a couple of times. They will get done.

I received the Skydevil prop driver.
It is much different from the original.
How do the later timers compare to the
originals.

The original came with a extension and spinner. The prop driver came on our production.
The timer is identical to the original.
