RE: No exhaust fuel line?

Thanx for the reply.

Any idea where the best place to drill and tap on the muffler is? I'm assuming it needs to be close to the engine exhaust port.

Another prop question

Got a LEO .46 (think of it like an OS) with a 10x6 prop on it.
The engine loads down too quickly. There's no noticeable sound difference from ~70% throttle to full throttle.
Increase the pitch?

RE: Flaperons? Those keep your wings from getting tired, right?

RE: Flaperons? Those keep your wings from getting tired, right?

RE: Flaperons? Those keep your wings from getting tired, right?

I'm not sure how I did either.

RE: Darn weather !!!

We've had great flying weather for most of the weekends this year in Las Cruces, NM.
I think El Paso, TX has had the same.
Maybe the trick is to fly to where the weather is good. :)
