Which of these cannisters are most quiet

[Ch!eF]

wich of these 2 cannister are the most quiet. The mtw75k or ks 88vs-4.

with the 3w106.

I don't know about those particular model numbers, but I can't tell a bit of difference between my KS and MTW cans in both sound and performance. Mine were on the 150, so maybe others will chime in to say if there is any noticable difference in the ones for a 100.

thanks

[JB Rekit]

No problem. If it were me, I would just get whichever ones costs less.

Will the 3W cans not fit? DA told me after running the BMB cans they were the most quiet ones they have run.

[Ch!eF]

the 3w cans are too long i would have to cut the manifolds to only 10cm , not good so i must get some shorter cans.

[Flyinrazrback]

What about the BMB cans, they run a very short header

[Ch!eF]

yes they have a short cannister also i will see what turns up either its the td75k only 235mm or maby the bmb 290mm could fit also.

[JB Rekit]

The JMB can from RC showcase work well in a tight space since it is a completely non-tuned can and header length is not a factor. Just cut the header as short as you can.

if i put my sacs 5.8 single into 2 lv90 cans (side by side with y header ) will it make less ex, noise than 1 can on its own. in a big pawnee so space is not a issue but sound is . alex

They are all very quiet, is the darn engine that makes all the noise!!

[alec taylor]

i know that if there was more effert put into this subject on quieting down moter noise there wouldnt be the problem that a lot of you guys are having with your flying sites. be like me, laydown hundreds of thousands of dollars for your own flying site with other houses around and you will make a real effert to cut the noise back. i wish the guys that make these cans and pipes would chime in with some help. all my planes are large plus full size. been here 11 years and not one comment on noise. and i dont let noisey planes fly off my site. cut open a lv90 yesterday and increased the lenght by 6 inches. not much baffling in there. i know i can do better and not strangle the moter. some of us like noise, but the people living nearby dont. come on guys , speak up on this subject. question for the big elec, guys. what db reading would you get from a 28.5 x12 3blade mejzlik doing 5500 rpm ? alex

i think part of the trouble with getting quieter is the weight gain from the extra metal needed for more baffles and larger cans.

[Outlaw Pops]

Have you considered The New Pro-Flow cannister from Dave Sullivan...May need to add them to the mix....pops

[alec taylor]

to joe and pops. in a tow plane weight is not a problem. as for the pro flow you guys are in a better position to check them out for noise. remember i am the last stop before the south pole . there must be someone that has the answers to noise. remember, tow planes are like some kids, better seen and not heard. or do we just make our own ? in my edge i think the sound in the fuse, is comming out of those thin cans and rattling around. to dave sullivan, if your cans are the answer you give me one to try. if its a winner i will buy it then get 2 more for my edge. 3w 170 3 blade and induction muffler fitted. i also think the cowl needs lined with something to keep engine noise from getting out. alex
