Do any of you use this pipe on the OS61WC? I can't decide between it and CY's Muscle Pipe.

I used the MP on my OS61 WC , and liked it very much had a very noticeable power increase. It could pull 700mm blades with 10 deg and 30% no problem.

I have the weston pipe on my R60 with the OS61 WC. I love it. Great power and not too loud.

I say go for it.

Got one on my Fury with an OS 61 SX and it works great. I did cut the header and put a silicone coupler in- didn't like that long pipe just hanging out there unsupported.

FWIW Weston says NOT to support the pipe. To do so would invite a failure of the weldment. I have not had any trouble with mine hanging 'out there' unsupported. The pipe and header weld still looks like the day I got it. I know lot's of guys are nervous about this but after 8 months of flying my Raptor I can say it's not an issue.
