RE: Ultralight with a DLE 222cc for engine ?
I "FULLY " intend to use a DLE-170 on my Exxtacy hang Glider for next winter !
For the money and weight, that engine will have More than enough power to push
my 168 squair ft glider .
Luckely i have a 36" gap bed Lathe, so i will machine a hub for a
three blade prop that has variable pitch. Much better power for
take-off that way, then relax for cruse .
I will need to takeoff and land on wheels however,(in dead air).
Notice the complete lack of legs beliw both knees on this launch at King Mt
Idaho last year. I got to 14K ASL on that flight. This was the nationals
compitition and i placed Last . ((sigh))
In the early 80's i was #4 in the world at aerobatics on one of these devises.
