I am in the process of assembling an Aeroworks Prox260 with a DLE 20 . Do you think the canister muffler
for the Zenoah 26/DLE30 will fit a profile model like the Prox260 ?
The AW PROX260FREESTYLE comes in two sizes, the .90 is what I have my DLE20 on.
If you're looking for more power via a can or pipe, absolutely no need.
At 7lbs with this DLE20 swinging a Vess -or- Zoar 17" prop, you'll be getting over 14# thrust!
With such large wing area for a .90 size profile, and large control surfaces, this is a great combo for a DLE20,
as profiles go.

If, however you're in need of something less loud due to noise constraints where you fly, you might consider
this (it's a DIY compromise)(page 2);

Richard used a header pipe + a beer can

I haven't (yet) gone that direction. But check out those web sites and see if what he's done, might be up your alley.
