GNZkrew, Tom at Valley View is a great guy. I have purchased a 50cc airplane and many props from him, although my DL-50 happens to be from Bob at DLUSA.

Here is a link from Bob regarding the warranty: http://www.rcaerobats.net/GAS_ENGINE_INFO/dl_50_engine_warranty_informatio.htm

Both Tom at Valley View and Bob are good guys to deal with and responsive to emails.

just put in in writing talk is cheap, DLUSA have it, you'll see it, just do the same but you last statement do not cut it. I don't want to be rude but bussiness is bussiness, and talk is cheap.
If someone give me one year warrantie I take it. Brillelli have a exelent customer service and warranty, one of his engines broke the main shaft from the pedulum clean, my engine just shoot off in fly and the airplane crash. I call scott from brillelli and I explain what happen, my engine was with one day of expiration of the warrantie, scott told me that this phone call activate the warrantie, I could not bolived, with hours of expiration and this man just honor the warrantie by phone. I got a brand new brillelli 15 days later. that's service. He got my loyal bussiness forever. DLUSA is doing the same with his customers but is in writing no talk. One's again no to be rude, but this is real.

I think you missed Tom's point. Toms idea sounds like a gentlemans approach, and a good one at that.

Well, here's the report.

EXCELLENT!

Couldn't want a new motor to do anything different than this one is doing right now. It *almost* is ripping the JXF 27 x 10 (or maybe it's my imagination; but at full bore it has that 'sing' to it)

It is just absolutely great. Transitions clean, midrange is not burbling, rich, or anything else. Doesn't vary with attitude.

Other than a hesitation on takeoff throttle up, which clears on rotation (probably still rich low end), it is just perfect.

Really couldn't want anything more. Didn't tach it, don't care or need to. It pulls this Ultimate straight up as long as I want it to go.

Thanks, Jeff. Yes, I plan to do a piece on both the DL and the Ultimate on the website. Although the Ultimate isn't "new" (sold by AW in 2006), it's still out there from World Models, but doesn't seem to get much press.

I'll get those weights, for sure, and post back.
