hodge Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Jamie I used 5" A/C ducting and polished it. It's galvernized steel but polished really well. Think it was only about 3 quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Asked everywhere JP and no go, 4" is the biggest I can find, you prob want a smooth bend otherwise it could be lobstertailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Is that definitely 90 degrees JP? Looks about 70ish to me (maybe even less), and then onto a 10 degree bend or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Shame shipping is expensive from that race part solutions, $166 to ship a small bit of pipe, i just paid $100 to ship my full lenth carbon prop from elsewhere, i will keep looking for the 5" bend.
