    If you’re looking for a quality spinner I’d recommend Whirlwind. They are carbon fiber and much stronger than the fiberglass ones. I have the 9.75” from Whirlwind and the craftsmanship is exceptional. The backplate is also carbon fiber and won’t crush or warp. UHS may be fine, but you get what you pay for.

    I bought a UHS. I broke it during install. I sent it back and they couldn't fix it. They sent me a new one and charged me. I got 8 of the 9 screws in the spinner, but the 9th screw hole needed to be tapped. I bought a tap and die set and learned how to do that too. Im 400 plus dollars into a SPINNER! oh, did I say that it needs to be sanded and painted because the primer has a little run in the paint.
    No, UHS does not get my vote and yes, i'm telling the distributor.

    I'll add that my whirlwind spinner arrived in beautiful finish. I then proceeded to paint it and polish it. Finally, I dropped it onto the pavement from about three feet, it hit right onto the tip. Not a mar one.

    Reviving an old thread. I called UHS and asked about delivery time for a spinner and was quoted 2 weeks. I'm well past 4 weeks and still nothing. The guy I bought it thru keeps calling and isn't getting any info from UHS. Is anybody here friends with the guy who owns UHS? Is he not well or is he just overpromising? I tried calling yesterday and today and got their voice mail. This is our prime flying season and I hate flying without one. I need a spinner and I'm open to any alternate suggestions. I have an IFA adjustable IVO prop on a Rotax 912ULS.

    Thanks!

    Eventually it showed up and required a lot of fitting.
