    Does a tuned pipe reduce noise?

    Good choice - you will like it. That prop pulls my Carden edge with a DA 120 steady out of sight on a vertical upline yet has good downline braking. If you exercise good throttle management on the horizontal line you will have a quiet plane!

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    I used a bunch of fender washers to move the engine forward on my Dalton but an SWB 0 degree mount would be cool. I say 0 degrees because the Dalton has right thrust built into the firewall and the SWB mounts come in several different degrees.

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    Looking good Cam! Yes, it is easier to have a friend help when you have to measure such long distances. I usually build by myself so I have to use all sorts of little jigs to hold things in place. Glad it worked it out for you.

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    I would not use CA on the phenolic tube - use either 30 min or longer epoxy! There is a lot of vibration and shaking going on at the tail end. Besides the thick epoxy makes sure the little spaces between the phenolic and wood are filled!!

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    Sorry, they are made from lite ply and just fit over the outside of the phenolic. If you "undersize" them enough they will be tight and won't slip but yet will still be able to slip them onto the phenolic and hold.

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    Cam, I made some "donuts" that were just slightly undersize that I slipped on the phenolic such that when pushed together kept the phenolic in whatever position is needed to get it straight, level and equal from front to back and up and down. I measure both the phenolic and the actual stab...

    I asked Doug Pilcher (our SC RD) about the 11 Oct Wrightsville contest. He said that in light of what happened to Bobby that they were not going to have it! Things may change but that's the word as of Saturday.
