Don't know a thing..
This was more than just last night, but... First time I have tried installing canisters, using RE3's with the Comfort mounts.. as others have said, these mounts can be a challenge to install. After looking at the space and scratching my head for a day or two, I decided to just open up the bottom and give myself a little more access to work with.... measured everything up, did a little cad drawings, cut out some stuff on the laser and it actually fit ! mostly.. one mistake is I left the comfort mounts a little too close together.... so, I cut a little spacer to help hold them apart...

Now I need to find a short exhaust extension that fits the ends of the RE3's... any suggestions ?

Today: Changed throttle servo (Spektrum out, Savox 1272 in) in my 104" Slick. Installed telemetry and rerouted some wiring (same plane). Now I'm going to start her up to recalibrate the throttle end points before it gets dark. Then it's off to the beer fridge!

The throttle endpoints are now calibrated and I richened the high end a bit to get rid of some RPM sag on WOT. That calls for celebration, which in my case means that I'm on my second Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA now. More to come!

Mounted the cowl on my EF 88 Edge. She is all done but setting up the radio, drilling the props, testing CG, and putting on the graphics. Maiden is getting close!
