Good morning and Happy Easter! Can anyone tell me if the VVRC 20 is a ''bolt in replacement'' for the DLE 20? My DLE 20's midrange is pretty horrible and I was hoping to get something that was a bit smoother and more reliable. I can use my DLE20 muffler, which is nice, but I'm not sure if I will have to replace the motor mounts, throttle linkage, etc.

Any help would be appreciated!
Yes,same bolt pattern as DL-20.I got several more flights on the VV -20 oer the week end.Nice-Nice little engine.I was useing the VV-17x6and 17x8 Props. will try the Xaor next and few other different props. Even a Master Air Screw.I used the DL 20 muffler on the VV 20.
The VV props seem to pull good.I will compare later. Did not even tack the little 20 . Do not no iiiiiiif it will turn with the DL or not,will find out later.It comes with a real NGK-CM 6 spark plug,a Walbro carb. Areal Walbro.Plus it hasthe new RCEXL Ign that has a real timing curve
not just a jump up about 20 degrees and then a sudden timing drop when you throttle down.Like the # 4.Ignition.I am going to run the snot out of this engine.over turn it a little and see I can hurt the rod bearings and crankshaft. But I have had no crank or bearing problem on my DLEs.
20,30.35.50&55RA. I believe it is smother then the DLE running a VV carbon F spinner.I do not want to hear anything about MAS and Zinger props and stiring paint. That statement is getting a little old LOL.
BCCHI AMA 2500. Of course I went flying after Church on Easter Sun.Weather beautiful here no rain or snow or Wind About 60 degrees F.
The last time I was in Seattle I ran into an old friend and ask him where he had been since I hadn't seen him for awhile.
He said he had moved to Wyoming. I asked him if it ever got to -20 degrees there.
Well yes, he said, but its a dry cold.
Is that true?
Yes that is true. I have never seen it below -54 F. Here in Riverton. Does not do that anymore,global warming you no.Was 62 above that is today. Going flying tomorrow.We sure need some snow or rain.My twin brother lives in Bothel.
