Now that I have yer attention, where do ya get your "O" rings that you use to hold your "Defuser's" on the venturi??
I tried some a/c o rings and they didn't last but a few flights.
I saw some made of "Buna" that I have seen in fuel syrenges, but need to access to some small amounts.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.. D>K

Gil,
Try a hydraulice hose company. I even sold these when I worked for a friend as a fastener company.

I get mine at Lowes and Home Depot. They are the "Danco" brand. #8 and # 9 size fits OS LA 46, #10 fits ST 51.

try the Home Depot. I've got black silicone ones from them in the hardware or plumbing section. You can also use a piece of wire- wrapped a couple of times and twisted tight, and also small cable ties work. I think the wire works best...
-
you can also use the little silicon rubber bands that are used for tying braids in hair - you can buy pack of 50 or 100 for a dollar
being silicon - they re not affected by fuel etc like rubber is

We use small Ty-Rap (wire ty's). They use them in electronics. Home depot or Lowes.

Panty hose?
I hear R/C scale combat guys sometimes use pantyhose to give their planes a tougher surface. Not that it helps much in reducing the number of planes they go through... but at least the material is inexpensive.

Did someone say combat fliers wear pantyhose to look tougher ? Hmmm!

I don't think so... but maybe I should post the idea somewhere where they get to read about it.
