"OK" Please don't flame me but I only copied the title, I still don't know where to look. I am not good at finding things in here. I did a search but it did not come up with any info on information about the two motors, could you be helpful and tell me what or where I should look, I thought I asked a simple question and get slammed.

You call THAT being "slammed"?? Oh, you ARE new here.

Yes, and trying to find something is crazy if you don't know where to look with 193 post's [sm=spinnyeyes.gif]

Slammed??? Not one bit, but a search DOES get results.

A 'search' gets you this.......

Doug, as was suggested earlier, read the complete first post in this thread. It has the info you requested.

Thanks for the info, I see it now. I was looking I guess for a side by side comparison in the two motors, looks like the DLE 20 kicks everyone's butt !!!

Let me help you out, Doug. I have both engines. It took me a while to get my CRRC 26 properly tuned, at least the one I got was plagued with all kinds of issues out of the box. Once all the issues were taken care of, needles properly set and a couple of gallons of gas later it became fairly reliable. The DLE 20cc (at least the one I bought) ran almost perfectly out of the box, even with the cheap Chinese spark plug (I have since replaced it) and required only slight needle adjustments. It is also more powerful and lighter than the CRRC 26. So, in my opinion, this should be a no-brainer. Hope this helps.

Sundowner 50 Hanger 9 DLE 20 Level flight Raydar at 105 MPH. Looked like it was a lot faster than that.

I'll make it simple. The DLE20 is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAY better than the CRRC Pro.


I do prefer to try get an engine thats light and powerful and that includes the name :/

Which is why I prefer VW Golf GTi to Toyota Corolla GLi 16V Twin Cam TRD.

Theres beauty in simplicity; DLE 20 vs CRRC Pro GF26i. Will you have enough space left on the wing with a name that long??

Well it didn't crack me up. You guys don't have a 1/10th the knowledge T.O.M has. While your busy patting each other on the back one of the biggest resources of engine knowledege has left. Yah he could be abrasive - so what - you knew what he said you could take to the bank. Later,

JNorton - yes, TOM has LOTS of knowledge and experience. Too bad he also doesn't seem to appreciate that other's are still learning.

raptureboy

If I have all the knowledge of the world but have not love, then I am just a noisy gong. Think about it The nice thing about online forums is you have the choice to respond to the question or not. But if you do respond you also have a choice how you respond. T.O.M chose most often, to respond in a less than gracious manner. It was also T.O.M's choice to leave rather than tone down his inflamatory rehtoric. Again, his choice. Have a blessed Thanksgiving everyone,and take a moment to show someone you really care. Thanks to all of you who so graciously share your knowledge. Peace.

The TOM I got to know is not the one you read here. Yes he can be very short. I've been using gas for along time and post very little. Even at the field I don't say much unless I'm asked. One poster here said he tried to find the answer but was new and didn't quite know how. This is the one you want to help. On the other hand a poster that says "I don't want to read a 100 pages, here my question" is the one that set TOM off.
Give him time to cool off and he may be back. All he really wants people to do is try and read and learn first before asking questions. He couldn't have been nicer to me on the phone and even gave me his cell in case I needed more help when I went to the field on Sunday.
You right I too wish sometimes he would tone it down some, but will defend him anytime.
He has spent a lot of time in the sand protecting this country and came home very sick. Had to make his own job to stay home. Sometimes the old saying about "walking in the others shoes" works.
I don't have to ask questions to learn from him all I have to do is read. some times that's something we all need to do. Dennis
PS on the FG thing. He did that on purpose to prove a point. His choice.

I have a DLE 20 in my Carl Goldberg Ulitmate 10-300 with a 16x8 Pro Zinger and it flys great, lots of power.

I want to THANK EVERYONE that helped me finding info on the DLE &CRRC motors. I just got an email from a friend that flies WWI planes like I do and he has a new G-38 that he will sell me for $150.00 I know that motor will fly the pants off of the Cessna and it needs extra nose weight so why not do it with a motor than dead weight. One comment I do want to make is that I can not set and read very much of anything for any length of time. I get headaches from reading small print for any length of time ( computer or a magazine) so that is one reason I might ask questions rather than looking at 20 pages worth of small print trying to find information. Just doing this right now might take only a few minutes but when I get done I will have to walk away and do something else so I don't get sick. I know some people are just plain lazy but there are some of us out there that just can't set for hours reading or we have to pay for it health wise. Again THANKS for all your help.

It may help if this thread were cleaned up, locked and made sticky.

A G-38 for $150 sounds like a sweet deal, if it's in good condition. I just receieved an MT 57 that I bought used here on RCU. Looks gorgeous, and it's HUGE! I bought it to replace an XYX 50 I have in my 78" Hurricane, but now I'm thinking it's TOO big for it! Might just have to look around for an 87" Sukhoi or 300 to slide this MT into...

I'd love to buy a DLE 30 for my 72" Super Stearman but I think I'm first going to try the OS 160 that I have.

That what I'm talking about Doug. We all need to know the person to understand why things are what they are. No one wants you sick and if we know you have a problem all of us will help in any way.
I see your in state. If your ever in BG stop by and fly with us. Our field is off of exit 28 about 2 miles. Dennis

I agree with acdii. This thread could be reduced to about half. There are alot of questions asked that have no good answer, such as prop size, oil type, servo brand. I know it's hard for a new person to have to wade thru all the stuff because their not even sure what their looking for. This takes time and knowledge to know what to read and what you can skip over.
Here is a question any new pilot can use and not get knocked. "I have tried to use the search and I failed. Can someone point me in the right direction? Then they get a link read it and come back with " I have read it now here's my question. Dennis
