  Next project is to change the muffler set up. This machine is REALLY noisy.
Before buying a spin tech, I may experiment with feeding my tuned pipe after it merges, into the heavy, stock exhaust manifold. <<<

   Hi Peter,

       Glad to hear the battery spun the engine after getting a boost.  Also very glad to hear your glider did just fine.  Sure gets quite, doesn't it?  I agree, its rather an odd feeling to see that prop standing still.     No doubt that rotary is noisy.  I have my pipes dump behind the cockpit so its not that bad while flying, but still noisy on the ground.  The spintech sounds like it is working fine for Tracy.  Somebody pointed out they have a product, an insert that goes into pipes, to deaden the sound.  Too large for my pipes, so I may end up with the Spintech as well.

   Looks like a LOT of places to land {:>), looks like you are on a frozen lake.

   #$%&*# Weather was bad again today.  Have not been able to fly for over 3 weeks, but hopefully will be able to saturday.

   Happy Holidays
