Note the key features here (look at their pics):
Pipe ready - greeves / KS1090 = 6600rpm on Mej 28x10...wooohooo check out my pipe thread for why
DA85 hardwood mount! (huge time saver)
Prehinged (glued already)
Pre-baffled cowling
No external cowl bolts
What about for a MTW RE3?

The RE3 should fit, we haven't gotten one to actually test fit but based on the specs it will fit inside of the tunnel.

Any one have updates on this bird?? I been finishing up other projects and now trying to decide on a tuned pipe for this one. I would like an RE3 but can't find one. Thinking g about a 1090 or a Greeve's pipe.

I have started my build. Unpacked it anyway. Right now I think I liked my AW 75cc Extra just a tad bit more. The landing gear on this bird is a 2 pc design that bolts vertically to the side of the motor box. There is a very stout alum support that goes across fuse at the top of the landing gear. I can not tell what holds the gear plate together on the bottom of the fuse?? The Extra has a 1 pc gear that bolts up to the bottom of the motor box. Also the can/pipe tunnel is fully open on the bottom. I really lie the partiallied covered canister on the Extra. I did how ever order a greeve's pipe(that would not fit in the Extra.

These are very minor preferences though, I can't wait to fly this bird!! The wing is slightly bigger and has more taper from root to wing tip. I believe the cord is greater also??

Some pics would be great! I am sure the design is well thought out as usual with AW. They always seem to put in a little more time before releasing a new design. Looking forward to the flight report.
