Default Canister for TOC 53

Tom

Do you carry a canister header and can for the TOC 53?

Thanks

Yes, we now have headers in stock for the TOC-53. They are like the ones for the DA-50, stainless steel with a flex section, very nice.

I have not done any measurements, but my casual observation is that there is no real change in power, just in noise.

Hi Tom I was wondering if you have had a chance to test and see if there is any thing to be gained from the header and pipe other than less noise !!!

No I have not. I got one batch in and they were all sold in a few days, and I was not able to keep oner for myself.

The next batch will be a month or so out.

I have a KS canister on a DL50 with a flex header from Tom. I dont think I gained any real impressive rpm numbers by switching to a can, but two big things I did notice was 1) much much quieter setup with a sweeter sound. 2) very impressive throttle response.

I had a 24x8 menz prop on the DL which use to spool up really slow ( I just used this prop for testing), When I added the canister the response from idle to full was almost instant. Know when I perform rolling harriers really low down and Im banging on the throttle stick, the instant punch I know get sends a quick blast of air over the control surfaces. Mid range is also much smoother and seems to have eliminated any mid range gurgle I once had.

Sounds Great, Just let me know when your ready.

Ruski31 forgot to ask, did you purchase a Hitec programer? I need to borrow one to reset my servos back to default.

No I don't have one but I would like to see how it works. I'm not to keen on using subtrims in the radio and then adjusting end points I think it cuts down on the overall available travel. So if you do borrow one count me in on a quick lesson.
