Default RE: DLE 30 engine timing

So you are saying that the predrilled holes in the engine that the timing sensor mounts to are drilled incorrectly by the factory? That the timing sensor is incorrectly placed on a new, out-of-the-box engine? That DLE has screwed up here and I need to drill holes in a different location on a new engine so that the timing sensor can be correctly positioned?

I'm confused here. Man, after all the good I've heard about DLE, it's amazing, isn't it, that DLE misdrilled the sensor location by almost 20 degrees?....or could it just be a typo in the manual?
Simple explanation! The holes are drilled correctly and most likely the timing will be just fine as the engine comes out of the box. The timing specs. in the Hobbico (Tower) manual are NOT correct. So.... use the engine as it comes and enjoy it.
