Hi Rich,
I installed two Flow Master Hushpower II last week. Have not flown with them yet, but the ground run up found the rotary "bark" was gone and just a deep throated roar remained (acceptable).
Yes, after seeing hundreds/thousands of stock RVs, I think the new and different always draws a crowd. An enjoyable part of being an experimenter.

Installed a Flowmaster Hushpower II last week. Did not mention it anyone around the field. After flying it had several pilots come by and ask if something as the engine sounded quieter and had a lower tone. It is very noticeable from the cockpit.
Flew to a flyin breakfast this morning at Fort Paine AL. There must have been at least 10 RV's there. Only one RV-3. Several people walked up when the engine was shut down and began asking about what was under the hood, so I pulled the cowling off. Great deal of interest there. In about 2 minutes I was pushed to the rear of the crowd. Fun! I really enjoy flying my rotary particularly at 200 mph. (Thanks Rusty)
Rich
