RE: 50CC Gas for 1/3 Spacewalker
I like mags so I never bother converting a Zinoah, the DA is a great engine but it's hard for a sport pilot to spend that much on one for a plane like the Walker. Not too many years ago conversions were a popular engine for that plane. I still have a Brison and got my muffler from JTEC but yes, it was a very high dollar engine but try to find one now. The DLE 55 runs every bit as well as the DA 50 and cost a bunch less. If someone was giving me an engine and I had the choice I would take the DA but if I was buying a new 50cc engine it would be the DLE. Ask me how I feel about that in five years and I may feel a bit different?? Most the DLEs I see are the 30cc and nothing much older then two years old. Time will tell, I wouldn't bet against the DA though, I see a lot of them well over 5 years old and still going strong. Pilots choice, there are several good engines on the market these days that don't break the bank.
