Review<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG> Well, I have the utmost respect for both Karl and Dean,
and then it seems there is more of a power increase than I ever thought, but
then if I have enough power with something as simple as a muffler then it
good enough for me I love the reliable natural and ease of operation, in
fact I was at a contest 2 years ago flying a near 11 LB. Focus with an OS
140 RX the Bolly 590r muffler, flying advanced pattern it has a stall turn
with 1/2 rolls one of the Chicago crowd that ran YS's made the comment that
"did you see that he done his 1/2 roll and didn't have enough power to
center the roll then he gave it more throttle and climbed to where he needed
to be", I'm not saying this is right for everyone but if someone is having
trouble it is a simple solution to many problems, giving more time for
practice and not trying to get something to work, I had the same problem
with the Webra 145 Aero X just was so slobbery rich in mid range sometime
would take 40 seconds to clear changed to the Bolly muffler and it has ran
like a top sense.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG> Like I said it's not a cure all but is simple, like me.
</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG> Dean I have been reading your articles for about 20 years
now and love what you bring to the table, so PLEASE don't get me
wrong.</STRONG></DIV>
