Default Imac plane to suit 3w 210xi B2 TS CS

Trying to work out what would be a good airframe to suit this motor. Was thinking 3.3m comp arf yak or 3.5m extreme comp edge 540. Any other ideas would love to hear. Cheers.

Dont think you could go wrong with either choice.
The Yak will possibly hold a more consistent speed tho.

Hey Snakeman , I have the same problem .The 210 is sitting on the

bench at home and I have no where to put the thing . It was intended

for a 3.0 Yak but the exhaust is JUST TOO FAT . The canisters are 85mm

diam and while they do fit between the UC legs there is NO extra room .


Its got me stuffed why they dont make the pipes longer as we have almost

3.0 meters of fuse to play with but trying to fit 170mm of pipes through

undercarrage and past wing tubes is a big problem. God help me but I may

have to make my own cannisters .


Keep in contact and let me know what you decide to do .


Stu

Hey STU
I think I might have brought your engine over to Temora with EE. If yours was one of those that made that journey with us. I wonder if you could get away with using the 170 cans if you were to add another outlet pipe, say directly behind the existing one on each canister? That would help relieve any extra back pressure by using the smaller canister. I'll see what EE has to say.
