Dave you don`t need any more cooling holes in the cowling
use a 16-11 or 12 apc. for your prop and I think you will be happy
e-mail me if you need any info on this airplane

Has anybody used an OS 140RX with an ES or Aeroslave pipe on the Shinden or is only for a YS short pipe set up?
Thanks in advance for any info.

Yes, the airplane is design around the YS 160DZ or YS170DZ with the short Hatori pipe set up.

You can also request a full lenght pipe tunnel when you order it. Atleast that's what I was told last year from David Shulman. at BVM. I know David is no longer there, don't know if that changes anything? I was planning to run the OS-160 in one at the time.

Brian H. will know!

I would be willing to bet that a Dremel and some balsa or honeycomb could ensure that you can stick a 1.40RX in it.

Thanks Ryan. Checking the weight again, it will probably be an OS 160.

Rodney,

You'll likely be better off with the 1.40, unless you're at a high altitude.

For a good fuse floor, if you don't have honeycomb, or don't want to put any in, I've had good luck with sealing some 3/32 contest balsa with Balsarite and then glassing both sides with very light fiberglass. The Shinden shouldn't be hard to stick a tunnel in.

No, it probably won't be hard at all. That fuse is definitely not lacking in space for it.

Seeking input on the elevator setup - how is the pushrod system came with the kit? how difficult is it to convert to using two stab mount mini-servos? other recommendations?

Meanwhile, is the airframe light enough to make the weight if the plane is set up as electric?

TIA,
Kevin
