Default Super Eagle to Pipe Distance

Any one know what is the recommended distance from the inner or outer exhaust cone to the bell mouth of Tam's bifurcated pipe? Couldn't find any info at Jet Central's site or by searching here.

Thanks Bevar and RCPete for the help. Got things set up based upon your advice and drawing. Of the six turbine airframes I have, only the latest has a pipe. The other five (Reaper, Facet, Turbine Enforcer, Baby Boomerang, Kangaroo) didn't use pipes as the turbines were out in the air.

Bevar, Sorry to take so long to get back to you but had a great deal of difficulty getting onto RCU the past couple of days.

<o></o>

My latest airframe is an old Skymaster F15 arf that I got from AirPac and Dreamworks years ago during a inventory closeout. Has taken me a long time to get things together (money, turbine, time, etc) to assemble it. Looking through some searches on the airplane it looks like you had one some time back. Any tips or tricks you want to pass on?<o></o>

Hey,

I had a Super Eagle in a gen 2 Skybanger F15 and it was the bomb. I put about 450 flights on it before I sold it...you will love it. I also got mine from AirPac. I dialed mine down to 25 pounds to save fuel because it's kind of short on tank capacity but even with it at that setting it was awesome.

Congrats and good luck,

Beave
