The 35RA has enough power for the Vanquish and most any current 2 meter pattern model. It's not as powerful as the OS but the extra power isn't necessary. Personally I prefer the OS but it's your call.
Having flown a gallon through the DLE now, I am going to take that comment back.Extra power ofthe right typedoes matter....
The DLE is being run with smaller props and tends to rev a bit more. It just doesn'tdevelop the torque of the OS so it can't turn larger props the way we need. The higher rpm in turn create a bit more speed than desired. That's a big deal in pattern if you want a nice slower, easier to show presentation....Higher speed is the wrong direction
The Vanquish has rather small wings (400 squares each) so they don't help much in slowing the plane down.
Throttle curve adjustments will continue until it feels more comfortable and possibly a bit slower. We'll see how it does after full break in, maybe another couple gallons. It should be able to turn a 20x8
BTW- one of the canisters is working well on the engine.Good quietness with very good transition. I had a different canister on it last week, one intended for the Webra 160, and that one developed too much back pressure making the engine hard to tune. But it was so quiet it was almost whispering.
