noises, long winded

John,
It sounds like something in the drive train to me. Have you
greased the prop shaft joints? Is the gearbox or ATF fluid at the
right level?
On a simpler note, is the exhaust system all tight and away from
the chassis?
Does it make the noise when you slow down?
Regards, Clive.

Hey Clive
Thanks, I had a look as I said and I tried the exhaust but it seems fine to
me.
But the noise is kind of like that hollow metal sound if you banged the
exhaust off something.
Ill grease the props as soon as it stops rainingmaybe next week by the looks
of it.
Is there any tests I can do to eliminate things or include things into the
posibilities area.

John,
Looking at the exhaust is not a good test. Go along it shaking it
and see if there is any way you can get it to Make a noise.

I had a similar tinny noise, ages ago. It turned out to be a hairline crack
in the exhaust manifold just before the flange that connects to the exhaust
system. I had it welded up and it's been fine ever since.
Just a thought.
Pete
