You BET YA it will.
I'v seen scott from the States fly his its also 16LBS and with a DA50 the thing really goes like a QQ102 with DA100.

I can wait for my RCL Yak its also gonna have the 65 in it. I would get it from you but already ordered it with the plane from Mr LEE olong with a EXTRA 330 and another 65 but hey if my current 65 works well with the cannister muffler then imagine that settup on the RCL YAk down at the coast.

No, they only have an 20G 3,5KG Metal gear servo.
What you want to use that for..? The cowl will swallow the 65cc hole. I have a large cutout on the bottom for cooling though.

Depending on what the can looks like there will be space, otherwise you can take it into the fuse, there is too much space there.

I like your receiver system weatronic is great. I've got one in my plane, so does Damien.

When I was in Germany two weeks ago I visited them in Stuttgart and we talked about some of the new things coming out soon.

Trev if you want to see some of the MVVS cans then come by my house. Got a bunch, well three of them.

One is going on my KMP Yak now. Don't know why but I think hovering the Yak with my MVVS 58 at near to idle is not enough.

MORE POWER PLEASE, hence the pipe.

On the MVVS 58. Turns a 24x10 Menz at about 6500 and has got more than enough power.
Always starts on the first or second flip and has not died on me in ages.

Ya your right it depends on the size of the can. The guy just emailed me the price is R870 which isnt bad at all and Im sure that its gonna work on the Extra I did some calcs at home it seem good. And if that can works well with the motor then I will order one for each of the 65's which I have on order.
