Answer JMB makes two types of cans -one is muffled ONLY and very numb to length -easy to setup and quiet .
The other is a tuned setup and requires longer header .
I can only find one type of in-fuselage silencer on the JMB site.
Designated e.g. M 60/60/270 or M 80/70/300.

Which type is this?

ORIGINAL: flyinrazrback

joel, with the 18" baffled pipe, I found with the DA 50 the best header for all around flying was 12" long, using a Vess 23A at 7100-7120. Perfect midrange and great top end power.
thanks thats what I was shooting for.When you set yours up did you tune for max rpms or best midrange transition and let top end alone

Thought I would paste this over here from the noise issue thread on the MVVS Support forum for interest:

I have now repeated these tests in the open air of my flying field and not in the garden as before the results are supprising, I did not expect the reflected sound off the surrounding trees to make that much difference to the sound volume.

MVVS 58 Pro, 22x10 3W prop, 5900rpm J-TEC large pitts silencer 90DB at 7 Meters.
MVVS 58 Pro, 22x10 3W prop, 6300 rpm MTW 75K with 25mm dia 210mm manifold, 83 DB at 7 Meters

The open area took 2Db's off the pitts silencer and 3Db's off the cannister, I suppose that is logicall as the lower sound would have a lower reflective index? therefore an extra Db off. I don't think I have mentiond before this engine is mounted on Isolation mounts to help lower sound atenuation through the airframe.
