1.Does anyone now where to get a pusher prop for a GWS A drive motor 10x4.5" size prop.
2. Also which motor controller is best for the graupner speed 280 motor because the GFS motor controller seems to be a bit to sensitive

Hi Richard,
Since the GWS props will mount either direction on the gearbox you may consider purchasing a GWS 10 x 4.7 prop and installing it backwards (front of prop facing gearbox), and then reversing the power leads to the motor. This would give you a pusher configuration.
As far as speed controllers, I have been using the Great Planes "Electrifly" controllers with very good results. They are very proportional and easy to set up. They can be purchased at the local shops, or anyplace that handles Great Planes products. I am sure their are others just as good, but I have not used other brands. I'm sure you will get input from others on good speed controllers.
I use the C-10 for 280 motors.
