My son gave me the this plane for my 60th bday back in May...purple and orange version, and he got it from Chief. Very sweet looking even though it sounds pretty gaudy with those two colors. I bought a DLE-30 for it, all the servos in the Summer. Just got a JTec pitts muffler for it. Should be assembling it this Winter. I was too busy flying and repairing planes to build it in the Summer. All I did was put the LG on, rudder and tailwheel when I first got it. This is my only plane by Pilot and it looks high quality. I do note some graphics on the bottom of one wing are really cockeyed. Might just eliminate them. Might put a helmet head in the cockpit. Gonna be a nice plane, my first 30cc gasser. I have a couple 50cc planes (Extra 330L and Ultimate 20-300), and a slew of glow planes that I still love. Would like to hear from others who have flown this plane with the DLE-30. Jon
Maukaonyx,
Ihave had this same sbach with the red/black scheme. i have been flyng the plane for over 1 year now with a DLE-30, 18x8 and 19x8 prop wow my plane is abit heavy due to the smoke system Iinstalled and a smoke fuel tank thats the same size as the gas tank. but my CGis great, Ihave the stock DLE exhaust on mine, but the pitts muffler will fitt really well. if you would like details pics let me know
