You can make anything work, it just getting the right fix...

If you don't want to run a bolt on muffler, then get a header, and a KS muffler with a tailpipe connector on the boom..

The link isn't working, but if it's the one I think it is, you can contact air star International. They handle the Zimmerman's and can check to see what is available.

Yes, it will fit.

I don't have a pic to show you, but I made some "extensions" from some old side frames, to give some clearance for the spark plug.

I moved the boom supports down to the bottom of the frame, which give more support IMHO, and attached my "extensions" to the boom support holes, and then the muffler to the extensions.

This is a great muffler, and I think provides more power than the Gasser torpedo, and is Definitely quieter. The only drawback is a little more tail weight, to an already tail heavy bird. But its only a couple of clicks of trim heavy. You'll really notice some starboard list gone with it mounted in the back.

I don't fly hard 3D, and the only time I've noticed the heavy tail when it is inverted for extended periods.


Well worth the trouble.


Good luck,
Scott
