Help with Tempest model

Hi People
being interested in buying this product just for the Tempest I'd like to know 2 things about the model.
I've seen some pics of the plane parked\engine off so i wondered
1)as far as i know the sabre rotated anti-clockwise, so why the prop is rotated clockwise?am i thinking wrong or there is a mistake in the prop pitch?
2)even if the prop pitch is correct and the sabre rotates clockwise (?) why the worn part of the prop is the trailing edge and not the leading edge?

Please don't consider this as a "rivet-counter" issue since to me it is quite important to know in which direction the engine turns to counter the torque

No ideas?Am I wrong?
 
Hi Ianf77,

The issue could well be a visual error on my part, however it should only be visual and will not affect the flight model.

Best
Dan.
 
Thank you:salute:
I don't think I'm going to buy the plane, I thought at least a patch was released to fix the problem.........
Anyway, thanks again
 
Hi Ian,

A patch can only be released if one is aware of the issue- nobody had yet bought the issue to the concern of FCS, therefore no patch [yet].
