RE: NEW DLE 20cc Gasser! (Data & Links 1st Post)
I just purchased a Venus II from a club member. I going to try my thumbs at the Sportsman sequence. It came with a Saito 100 that didn't have near enough power for the up lines. I just got a Saito 125.... then I stumbled on this thread.
The DLE-20 sounds like it might be a good motor for the Venus II. It is another 5 ounces heavier but the Venus flys fairly light anyway. Don't ya love it when you purchase something... and find out their is something better for less money. |

Thanks to Jody, I ordered my DLE 20 yesterday. This is my first gas engine and it really fits the size airplanes that I fly and afford. I've had one of the OMP Ultimate 10-300 kits for a while and this looks like the perfect fit. Anybody have and experience with this airplane? It doesn't have a tube. Should I add one?

Jody,
What's the distance from rear backplate of engine - to - choke plate (open)? I plan to mount this engine on an AW [.60-.90] ProX260 ARF-QB, and that distance measurement will determine how far out on the rails to mount this engine &/or if notching the fuse for carb/choke plate clearance might be needed. |

Give me a couple of days, I don't have room to store all of our planes within reach so that one is at our warehouse.

All of the other information that is currently available is on page 1 of this thread, will update it as more information becomes available. We are now accepting pre-orders for the first shipment. http://www.valleyviewrc.com/DLE-20cc%20Gas%20Engine.htm |

Hey Jody,
Do you think the DLE 20cc would work well with this for 3D? http://www.aero-works.net/store/detail.aspx?ID=75 |
RE: NEW DLE 20cc Gasser! (Data & Links 1st Post)
Probably a little to much engine for that plane, try the 15cc gassers.

I have it on good authority there are a bunch of spacers in the joint on the 222.....

Thank you very much!

ORIGINAL: tkg So the 90 sized U can DO we have been flying for a year with the DLE 30 is a bad idea??:D It is fun TKG I'm just considering the flyers new to gassers, reading these posts on this DLE-20, and thinking they too can do as we have, stuffing massive engines in their models. In THAT particular model, a DLE30 is massive overkill, a DLE 20 is a bunch overkill, and the 15cc is a great match. Things like mounting space inside the cowl, and prop to ground clearance need to be considered. Bigger engine=bigger props=less prop to ground clearance, unless they stretch out the l-g. Twice I've put 350 V-8's in Chevy Vega's. THAT is beyond massive overkill (370 HP in a 2450# chassis), but doable.[sm=72_72.gif] |

Do you think the price will come down once it out for awhile. right now it's close to price of the DLE30.
