Thimble Drome Prop Rod
Manufactured approx. in 1957
The hot Prop Rod was a unique design, which was adapted over the years to lead via an all-plastic Prop Rod finally to the R/C Shrike.
The very first Prop Rod models came with the Space Bug Jr. The sample shown here was the first version of the Prop Rod with the new Babe Bee engine. It still has the cast aluminum bottom pan. Similar to the Thimble Drome Special, the wheel rims were turned from aluminum. The Prop Rod featured a detailed cockpit with gauges and a steering wheel. It could be run free or tethered around a center post.
