[TowerTalk] LM-470 D and Rotors

I am replacing my current LM-470D Tri Ex tower with possibly another one. When I do, I want to use a different rotor in it. Currently I am using a Ham IV with beefed up parts and that has held up reasonably well but not without failure. The paperwork I have for the LM 470 says a “Ham” style rotor or a small prop pitch is what will fit. I am also aware that these parameters were written many years ago and circumstances have changed and new rotors have come onto the market. I am aware that if one uses spacers between the rotor plate and the base of the rotor that a T2X will fit in the tower. That’s good but what else will also fit the tower? What kind of rotor, different from a Ham-IV or T2X are you using in your LM 470 D tower or do you know of someone using something other than what I have mentioned?

Thanks very much
