Ok , you guys got me on this "mouse can" muffler thing. What is a mouse can and how do you use it as a muffler on an rc airplane? I guess i dont get out enough.
By the way the crack is in the front of the muffler. Hit a light pole with my sky raider. Of coarse i would like more power in a muffler but right now i cant spend much money on one. (I just bought the new edge) I dont want to lose power either. Although that ax is one great engine. I had unlimited vertical with the sky raider. Yea buzzard you got a good deal on ebay for that power box. I saw one on ebay the other day like i said on my post but it was $85. Hell you can get the whole motor for what $150?
I think i can use my patched up muffler for now. Its not gonna win the good housekeeping seal of approval for cosmetic beauty but its in a cowl any way. Im sure if i keep shaking the trees sooner or later a power box muffler will fall fall down. I actually have 2 46 axs . The other one i got from a friend and it had no muffler on it. I found a muffler to fit it but man it sure dosent have the power my other one has, Maybe because of the muffler or maybe its just wore out but there is a dramatic difference between the two.
Hopefully i am going to take the new edge on the maiden flight this weekend. Wish me luck!
Thanks for the replies and suggestions guys. Mucho appreciated .
P.S. I still want to know what a mouse can is. Tks...Dave
