Got something similar on on of my helicopters...... Although a lot cheaper



It does knock the high end sound down quite a bit.

It does look quite vulnerable though, My Beetle's tuned pipe stinger was well battered.

The silencers work great, the only thing I have learned from owning them is..... dont buy the ones that screw onto your muffler get the ones that are held on by springs

I wonder if could be adapted to the jetpro, it was so loud from 15 feet away it was hurting my ears, the worst was when i drove the mt in industial areas and the sound echos between buildings

Cyberfyn, I had one of those on my old nitro car. Leave the end loose - it flaps around and makes a right racket :-)

I would also like to know were do you buy these silancers It sure would be nice to drive this thing around the house with no one complaning.

I am new to the 1/5th scale stuff so I am having a hard time finding parts and only two hobby stores in the area carry some basic parts.

i bet you could pull rad wheelies with one of thoses mufflers on the back of your mb it would really help with wheelies as well as a muffler so it does 2 jobs for the price of one hey not bad
