The YS160 or 170 glow engines put out similar power to the dle30. These will turn a 19x11 APC prop at useful rpm. And of course throttle response is second to none. You should be able to find a new or low time YS for a song anymore. These thoroughbred pattern engines are being given away by pattern folks since they have all converted to electric.

if you decide on nib engine from a supply house, don't overlook RCJapan. You will save 100's over the domestic sources.
