RE: Pipes in 35% 260
As far as I can tell by looking at mine, I would say it would be
difficult at best. I always say to each their own, but I do not
see the need. Maybe for 3D, but not for Aerobatics (IMAC).
Mine has flown both Basic (Myself) and Unlimited (my Son)
classes of IMAC competition.
Then, as a late thought, there is higher altitude flying.. where
a 26 by 10 prop would perform better that the common 27 by 10
choice...

Ben, It would not be to hard to install pipes in the plane, you would have to sheet more of the tunnel and add a support former but other than that it would be pretty easy. In fact I am considering installing a set in a new 100cc 260 for next year.

Sweet! I'm considering getting one of these or a QQ Yak as I feel my plans for the Dalton 260 are starting to fall through. I'm about to move in a couple weeks and Van is trying to get a new work bench built so my wings may not get sheeted before I leave. I have a 3W 106 on the way and I have some ES Composite pipes and I'd like to use them since I think that would be a killer combo, but only if I have an airframe to put them in.
Flew the E-260 by the way and it's a lot of fun. I've even hovered it about a foot off the ground.

Hi, Sorry to butt in but what about a pipe in the 90-120 size yak? Going for a light 26cc gas so looking for top power and min weight.
Cheers

Im looking at the ES Composite pipes their very light and from everyone I've talked to they add about 300 RPM.

What pipes are you going to consider for your install?
