I built this exhuast snout out of !/4" stock. 5 pieces were cut and grinded and grinded some more. Welded and grinded. 2 inside wholes were drilled. one on each side of the rib about 11/4" wide and about 4" high. Cut a great big "C" in the can and put it back in.

Looks Great let us know how it goes. It's good to see people having a go at building something themselves instead of just buying the same old stuff of the shelf.:cool:

Talon 2.5,
No but I finally got to run it at the Romp last weekend. It's too loud acirding to my wife so it' got to be abput right:D sound wise. Really helped the hole shot without the bubbles hitting the prop and causing it to slip. I will take one and post it for ya.

Here's a couple of more shots. The one first one is hard to see what it is but it's the inside of the snout and you can see a little of where I cut the can. The second is the back of the snout, back further.

zoomed in on the snout in this one, someday i'll do the one i have in the garage, it already has the exhaust cutouts where yours does so it's a perfect candidate for this :D
