Hey Mike
Have a bunch of flights on the new 260. The problem I'm having is that it flies to straight.
I'm not used to this from an ARF and is there any cure?
Thank you for your time.
Great Plane and a Great Value.
Next time your up at Wheeler I'll let you fly it.

Mike , Will the MTW 75's in the K series (stubby version) fit the pipe tunnel without much modification? I already have these silencers and would like to use them .

The Cans I believe are the MTW 75K. They are the front exhaust ones that are longer and thinner diameter (55mm).

I dont remember how the header drop is defined. The drop needed as measured from the mating face of the header and cylinder to the center line of the coupler is 54mm.
If you talk to Desert Aircraft, just tell them its for the H9 35% 260 and they'll know what you need.

You also need 2 couples and 4 clamps.

If they ar larger in diameter than the 75k's then it will be quite difficult to make them work - anything more than about 1/4" radius larger would mean major modification...

I used the 75K cans and the 90mm drop header with no problem.

Hi.

Does anyone know where I can get headers for the Evolution 116 to use with MTW 75 cans?
Or do I have to make them myself?
