    I've been busy!

    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.

    Exhaust snout

    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.

    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 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
