Well that's cool. We've been waiting for someone to try a DLE on Gas/Glow. Glad to hear it works out fine as we suspected.

Hi, Gas/Glow conversioners;
It is Spring.
It is good season to fly, now I have taken a video for my gas/glow converted DLE 20 on a F3A plane, Accipiter 90, which I choose because of only available here in the time.
To mount a China made DLE engine on Accipiter, four American-made parts were ordered from USA; a plug adapter from Fujiman, a back-plate from seaplanesupply, a wrap-around muffler from Jtechrc and a soft Hyde mount from centralhobbies. Thanks again to these four suppliers.
The Accipiter has short-engine room, so I attached another back-firewall for Hyde mount and stand-off mount (photo attached). And I installed a auto-booster for OS F plug and programmed to operate in low idle speed.
The engine and muffler were taken from the crashed plane which I mentioned above, so muffler is distorted and no ignition system. The Acippiter is good and very light for DLE 20.
For easy starting, easy management, very powerful and economical for fuel expenses I am very delighted for gas/glow converted gas engine. I am enjoying to fly the Accipiter in these windy days. http://youtu.be/Cyquiy6UTDo
