I think the air ducts are made more like this:

I will ask Juan when i see he. Im clueless about it. I have a brand new screwdriver because doesnt bring the user manual. 😀

Dear friend, the mod was a favor.
My friend Daniel works are RC helicopters landing gears, glider custom parts etc. Some of the most expensive custom parts selled there under other brand are made by he.
I just couldnt ask for more. He doesnt have all the day for mi things 🙂
Anyway thanks for your words.

Would you ask your friend how he did this.
In the attached image of a tank adapter I can understand the 4 centerlines (red,green,blue,yellow) needed to turn this piece. What I don’t understand is the purple circled area. How is that shaped so nicely to blend with all the other curved surfaces ?

FYI to cut carbon.

I use a tile saw with a diamond coated blade. Water spray to catch the dust. Nice crisp and square cuts. Precision length cutting can be a challenge unless the saw is built into a bench (like ours).
I got one for home from a tool truck sale in a parking lot for $20. LOL
It is very basic but will cut as well as the big one at work.

Or get a composite blade for a chopsaw, and put a shopvac hose right behind the blade to catch the dust. Wear a respirator or suffer the lung problems later. 😕
This cuts clean, but leaves fine carbon dust everywhere which smells sorta like hot brakes. Nasty crap, you were warned.

The Kevlar tubes tho, will always have fibers sticking out after the cut. The only way t make them look good afterward is to lay them down with a coating of epoxy.
This stuff will eat a diamond blade for lunch.

Honestly i dont know for sure if are made of 6061 , 7075 or wtf. The only certain is are aeronautic alu. I need to ask.[/quote]

It was for airgunner. If he’s worried about it being aluminum make it out of 7075 or if you can find it 7050. 7050 is as stong as steel.

Cutting carbon or kevlar tube is a doddle . From the pictures I can see spelching (splitting) of the carbon which you get from using a hack saw or chop saw .

To cut it easily all you need is a dremmel tool with snake attachment and a thin cut off wheel .
I use a normal 4″ angle grinder with a 1mm slitting disk to roughly cut the tube to length . Then pop it in my lathe and use the dremmel snake tool strapped to a normal lathe tool to mount it in my tool post and cut the ends square . no splitting and a perfect square edges 🙂

Ive got some carbon to cut later today so I`ll see if I can take a video on my phone 😉

Now you know why I make my shroud tubes out of weave. I made the s410 shroud tube out of 2×2 twill, same as yours. No metallic ping.
I don’t see the need to use kevlar except for bragging rights. 😎
That stuff is around $250 US per linear yard. Its quite strong for resisting impact, but I hate trying to get a clean cut on tubes made with that stuff.

The rest of my shroud tubes are identical to the ones offered by McMaster Carr. I know because we make them. 😉

Its a gift from a friend of mine. Daniel. He made parts por RC helicopters and he tell me “is a unique piece” Reading the cost now i understand why he said that. He told me the same as you: Cutting the tube is a good kick in the balls.
In deed the noise aint bright. Removing the internal frame baffles give me the original accuracy.

quote Dyotat100:

If it were made out of 7075 it would be even better. Aluminum is fine as long as you don’t make it to thin. Wait until you get your condor and see how many thread holds the tank to the gun. I’m going to make something similar to the one in the last pic but for a reg out of 7075.

Great picture.

Where did you get the customize gauge that fits so nicely into the adpater ?

Its a standard gauge made in hk. But with a cover made a grabbed with two allen screws. Alsa made by my friend Juan.

If you need any extra info just tell me.

That will be great. Pictures from all sides and thru the center.
THANKS 😀
