The wing span is 88 inches. The wings come off as a pair and includes a wing jig to hold them in place so that you can mount them as pairs.
I will take the $500. We live in Brooksville.

RE: What Aircraft are you installing your DLE20

My DLE20 is currently doing the job in a Great Planes Hawk P-6E. Very nice match. The ARF has been re-introduced by Great Plane for late Jan delivery. At a 'mere' $479.00 !!!

RE: NEW DLE 20cc Gasser! (Data & Links 1st Post)

Thanks for the input on throttle linearity "fixes".

A1PCFIXER, I'll try your curve next.

I'll be using the DLE20 in my next scale project, a Dynaflite Fly Baby (with a "few" mods).

RE: NEW DLE 20cc Gasser! (Data & Links 1st Post)

Exactly. HP is simply torques times rpm and a constant. Match the rpm to your airplane and have a ball.

Also, everyone keep in mind that static thrust is just that, static. Unless you can fly...

It's not hate, just data.

There's also a huge difference between different make props with the same pitch/diameter. I personally am not a fan of MA props. I just tried it since the prototype I'm flying (Hawk P-6E ARF) used a...

Charlie,
I didn't take thrust measurements, but mine got 8000 rpm on the MA16/8/3. I get about 8800 on an APC 16/8/2.

RE: P-6E Curtis hawk (build thread)

Thanks, I've converted mine to gas stopper and I'm breaking in a DLE-20. So far looks good. I was flying it with an OS160 (had one), but it was way too much power. The DLE-20 is turning a Zinger...

RE: KAOS AND RELATED PLANES AND INFO

That was why I asked the question. I had hoped that, since the plans were published in February 1970, the plane may have been flying early enough to qualify. My research on Kimbro's Deception lead to...

RE: KAOS AND RELATED PLANES AND INFO

This question may have been answered in the thread already, but I didn't see it.

The original Kaos was published in the Feb 1970 issue of RCM, so it was flying in the late 60's.
