Does anyone in here have positive results with smokesystem including the DA50 ?
My setup is DA50, MTW canister and MTW header with smokeconnection.
Is it possible to make good smoke on this setup ?

The best place for a smoke tap is in the header. The more heat the better the smoke. Sometimes MTW canisters have a smoke tap in the canister. While this works, the amount of heat in the canister is quite a bite less than in the header

I have the version with the tap in the header.
Do you have any experience with smoke on this setup ?
Will it smoke as well as on bigger engines, or only on full power ?

/Anders

Smoke production is determined by two things, fluid amounts and heat. If both are in the correct proportions, the size of the gas engine is the smallest part of the equation. Large gassers running twin exhausts usually produce more smoke than a small gasser using a single exhaust outlet. Your DA and exhaust installation should do well.

Ok ;-)

I will continue my installation...

Thanks for all your fast answers !

Happy flying

Anders,

What Silersurfer said is exactly correct. I have it in my Zenoah G-26 (26cc) powered Stearman and it makes plenty of smoke and on a clam day the smoke hangs around long enough for me to draw smiley faces

With a chance of this question starting a religious fight ..... I know there is a lot of solutions BUT :
Which fluid do you guys use ??
I have tried som glycol based fluid which is used on discotecs - no smoke at all :-(

/Anders

I use SuperDri.
