RE: DLE20 as a replacement for Saito FA-180
I am sure it will fly it but I dont think it will hover it at all. From what I have read I think the 20 just falls short of the Saito 150 in power if the Saito is on 15% nitro. I also think the numbers are about 200-400 rpm short of a OS 120 AX. I know many claim it has more power than the OS 120 but in the smaller props around 13-16" it doesnt. it might be close in the 18" size props though.
