Hey Brian,

Looks great. Can you send me an email with the dimensions of the headers? Something I can forward to my team of header builders?

Your parts will be shipped soon!

Bill I cut 4 3/4" off the long end and 1 1/8 off the headpipe rise and it fit great as the picture shows. I have to commend Bill Hempel on a great aircraft ! Keep it up Bill I still have a stock 275 waiting. Mike are you using cans or in cowl muffs? Thanks, Brian

We are going to use in cowl mufflers, To make it real loud

. I dont like the power curve of pipes........ I know the 3W 275 is the Engine of choice but since we have a bunch of 3W 240's laying around we figured we would get it in the air and see how she does. If it just isnt what we want we will get the 275 for her.

Negative...... it is simply a high quality squirt gun and the computer screens in the back ground are what i use to play online poker.....

Today we will be making all of the extensions for the servos

We will measure the lengths from the servo leads to the power supply and install the ends ourselfs since they will be so long. This will require One million feet of extensions .........

The kit is $2495.00 from BH plus shipping. The 3W 275 Comp Series motor is $ 3195.00.

3Dguy · 10-14-2008, 10:45 PM

Don't forget about servos, extensions, batteries, Rx, and that expensive thing that the Rx hooks up to.

It is an awsome thing to work on a plane that is sitting on the ground and you can be standing up.

After everything is bought and paid for, all the add ons and the BEST EQUIPMENT POSSIBLE

, a little of this and a little of that, taxes, & shipping my 50% Edge was $10,000 easy

The Yak will be the same.

king160woody · 10-15-2008, 01:04 AM

You need to build a 50cc edge or 37.5 yak for some extra money to pay for all that.. I think I know who needs something like this done.. he he he he
