I want to replace the cowl and install a pitts style muffler. but Aeroworks doesnt offer the cowl. So I have to wait for stans fibertech to get into production so i can get a replacement. they are going to produce the replacement. as per my conversation with them last week. they project being in production inside of a week. (holding breath) this will help shroud the carb but what do I do in the meantime? I am pretty new to giant scale. but I am pretty handy once I have an idea of what I need to do. how shielded does it need to be? I am used to flying glow engines so I am pretty clueless to the needs of a gas engine. but I have a handle on the tuning part. thanks to this thread. I have found its quite easy in fact. especially so when compared to 90 class helis.
