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.

Hey Sal98, thanks for stopping by the other day. I'm sending those batteries back to Tanicpacks (the manufacturer) to get the Thunder power balance leads put on. Should be ready to maiden soon and here comes more snow ggggrrreat.

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.
