Hey guys,
I'm currently building a 73" competition-scheme AJ Laser as well. It had been mentioned in a prior post that not many people install a canister or pipe on this model and I can see why. I was forced to knock the back out of the tunnel and extend it to the adjacent bulkhead in order for it to fit. I am keeping the bottom of the cowl closed and have an opening at the back for the air/exhaust to vent. If my fluid dynamics calculations work out, all the entering air at the front should be sucked out the back properly.
I'm about half-way through the build now so if screws appear missing or certain items aren't plugged in... there's a reason
My setup:
DLE 35RA
Mejzlik 20 x 8 Carbon Prop
Tru-Turn 3" Spinner
Fourtitude 12oz V2 Tank
PlaneBender Pro-Flow Header (1 & 3/4" drop) and Small Canister
Futaba BLS 175sv's Control Surfaces
Futaba S3073HV Throttle & Choke Servos
Vbar Control/Neo
Tech-Aero Super IBEC
OptiPower 3500mah RX Pack
Let me know if you have any questions about the header/canister stuff...
