Status: offline 		I am using the YS .91 with stock muffler. What pipe setup are your guys using?

Looking for something simple, making wing installation as easy as possible. Oh, and looking for reliability and low cost.

Thanks!

Status: offline 		I use a YS120 with a wrap around header from Central Hobbies, a 7.5" length of teflon and a Hatori pipe. The wrap around header came with a 6" length of teflon which was not enough for this particular installation.

I leave the pipe in place. Carefully lift the pipe just enough to slide the wing in place; I prop the rear edge of the wing on the fuselage (with most of the wing below the pipe) while attaching the servo leads; then push the wing in and attach the wing bolts/screws. Removal is a reversal of the above process.

I installed a pipe mount below the teflon pipe (towards the pipe inlet end), used a couple of cable ties(these require replacing when they nearly burn out) and another mount on the wing (trailing edge) at the pipe exit tube end. I made my own installation to make this work, to install and remove it easily and to secure the pipe etc. using a metal hose pipe clamp drilled to attach the hose pipe mount with a screw to the rubber mounting post on the wing. This may sound complicated, but email me for details.

I think there could be better arrangements for this installation. I have not thought of anything better yet. The pipe sounds great and the model remains very clean.
