The hinges supplied are a very good CA hinge that I have on my little Velox. No problems so far.

Thank you

Dave

We have had good success with the CA hines to date. Over 2 years with some planes.

Thanks

We used a Pefa cannister that worked well. Plenty of room for a slimline also. The wings are built up. The turtle deck and the belly are the only foam sheeted items.

Thanks

John

Status: offline 		One last question, I have a ZDZ 50 NG and a Slimline Pitts style muffler. So if I didn't want to use a canister, could I just cover up the hole for it?

Status: offline 		I thought my 1st questions has been asked and answered but I can't find it, so here goes. 1) Do you know for sure what covering is going to be used? 2) If running the cannister that you had in the prototype, is there any special tuning knowledge that is needed (such as with tuned pipes)? I'm looking at this plane as possibly being my first gasser and need a motor/muffler combo that is basically plug-and-play.

Thanks for the information.

Status: offline 		Hello,

The covering is what they order for thier planes from germany. They produce planes for many large companys. I will have photos showing the cannister install in the manul that will be online next month. Nothing special is needed as you will see. I hope this helps.


Thanks

What engine have you been using and how does it balance out . Is there any weight added to front or rear of plane, and what is the total weight of the proto plane.

thanks,
Stacy

The DA 50 has no problem to balance. No additional weight is needed. Finished weigh RTF was 16lbs 8 oz with a Pefa Cannister. Let me know if I can help further.

Thanks
