My clubmate is flying his  30 cc Jug on the DLE 55 and it is a real powerhouse.  Vertical performance is unlimited.  The included muffler hangs on the side and required a large section of cowl to be removed.  Even with this big engine the ship still needed about 18 oz. of lead to balance. (he is using a retractable tail wheel)   The drawback has been destructive vibration.  He has broken cowl mounts, servo mounts and several sections of interior fuse framing have come unglued. 

Good Luck,

Doug
