I was being a peepee, but I also couldnt see it last night. Idk what's up, can see it this morning.

Pipe leak, probably due to the ? Rovan gasket.

 

[RcJunkie13]

Ok guys do you think the leak could be because the holes are bigger then the bolts, allowing the pipe to move and create a leak?

 

[Seandonato73]

No

If the pipe can move it isn't tight enough, I've slotted exhaust already amd never had leak or movement issues. You gasket wasnt sealing, so either the pipe flange isnt flat, the exhaust flange isnt flat, the bolts weren't tight, or the gasket blew out. Can see the gasket didnt blow out, I assume the bolts were tight enough, so has to be something not flat for it to leak like that.

Finally a pic with the body on, air filter is a really tight squeeze, had to squish it.

 

[Seandonato73]

Looks good. You paint it?

 

[RcJunkie13]

Shout out to Planet Hobbywood, know them well over there, they did the body and supplied electronics. I just said surprise me and got this. Super happy with how it turned out. I hope the filter squeeze will be fine, if not I will have to get a new filter, I don't wanna have it sticking out the body.

 

[Seandonato73]

Just save up and get the tr filter box or the crazy stu set up, with either you should be able to run a decent filter.

 

[RcJunkie13]

Will the crazy stu go on?, and yeah I have though about the TR box (almost bought it), I will need to have it stick out the body. Ill see how this works out first

Idk is the stu would for sure, but I'm fairly positive the tr box would sneak through in there, it hugs the side if the engine pretty good.

 

[RcJunkie13]

doesn’t look too bad, but I will still try this first, hopefully the filter will still be properly able to suck air with the body on

That looks realy nice they did a good job on the paint.
Im going to have to cut a hole in mine to fit the filter.

Try the new obr vstack and the DT1 dome filter. That might be enough to keep her in the body.
