Default RE: U-Can-Do 3d 46?

Thanks guys... Rob, the muffler is new from Slimeline, it's the new Inverted 4-Stroke Muffler and the glow remote is from Revolution. it's actually design for helicopters but was perfect in that it has a rubber boot that locks onto the plug and the metal bracket comes with it. I just had to run a ground wire from the metal bracket to the motor bolts and it works great . I like it over the regular ones from Du-Bro and Sullivan as it was short, simple to install and doesn't 'pop' off like the others.

Barry, the engine is indeed installed inverted ... I almost installed it right-side up but noticed that in the instructions they show it right-side up but when I looked at the mounting pic closer the landing gear is actually at the top of the picture. So I just installed it upside-down and put the Pitts muffler on it and it flies great but I'm still dialing it in with the help of the fellas at the field.

BTW, I love flying this thing and I am so far able to perform a Hover, Knife-Edges and the Begginner IMAC pattern (still needs practice); got my 20th flight on it this weekend so I'm happy.

Cheers,

Mark
