Default KS 1060s on DA-100

Anyone running these? What are the before vs. after RPM numbers with the same prop? What's the weight of the system?

Thanks

Please, no 3W vs. DA vs. BME etc... discussions.

you should get about 400 more rpm with the 1060's over stock exhaust. I can't remember exactly but the whole system should be about 2 lbs or so.

I have been running them in My Comp-ARF Yak for about 2 months now.

Havnt bothered taching the setup, but in flight performance on a Mejlik 28-10 is pretty special. The model weighs in close to the 30lb mark ready to fly but you should see the way it accelerates out of a hover. It dosnt just claw out it accelerates the longer you fly the vertical line.

The only downside I have noticed is a little bit of a doughy mid rang to about 1/3 throttle, then the pipes hit hard all the way to full throttle, it can make the throttle a little touchy if your just trying to fly a medium speed horizontal line.

For IMAC sequence work this set-up should be able to take you all the way to Unlimited.

Mid range can be easily handled through throttle curve, 28 x 10 mej = nearly 600rpm from stock exhaust
