Help ! I broke my AME parts !

I cleaned and oiled my AME 061 pre-revlite engine and wanted to store it, I try to put on a prop and I over tightened it, Prop drive plate cracked. Quick search on NV web page noticed that NV actually not carry any stock/ parts for older AME engine. Its older style with tapered collet. I attached photo here.
Anyone have spare drive plate please?

Well, at least it didn't crack in the air. There are lots of pre-revlite owners at RCG and RCU. Try posting a wanted ad in the classifieds.

Hi Rusty , I will try to post it here first, because most of RCU or RCG members might not willing to ship it outside USA, I will try to post there if no one in CEF have spare drive plate . Thanks !

Ouch! I don't have any but a quick eBay search brought up this complete engine with no bids yet. They even offer worldwide shipping. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-AM-061-Model-Engine-w-Exhaust-/121158950631?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item1c35a2dee7 keep your eyes on it.

NV engines will more than likely be able to assist you in the needed parts. You will have to sign up for a account. You can e-mail them directly and the fellow is Alex who's the factory rep. I certainly would purchase other spares. The Norvel uses a slip on drive washer. The engine they offer which is the Aero is the old AME Zeuss which uses the collet and lock ring. Although they don't list the part, I'm quite sure they have the part. I've purchased many parts from them which were not listed on the website. Ken

Hi Jacob, Ken,

Thanks for the tips , I'm watching the item ! Its not AME, its BigMig Revlite and the prop drive plate is not collet type as mine, but no harm to get one spare though. and I will try my luck by contact NV . Thanks for help!
