Maybe you forgot Roland Matt's engine that punched a hole in the crankcase. ANY engine, be it DA, 3W, BME, Brison, etc.. can and will have the occasional failure.

All of the engines mentioned will do the job quite well. I'm loyal to DA because of the level of service I've received from Dave Johnson over the years.

DA for now.... in a couple of months I think the tide might move back over to BME with the 110.... too soon to tell.

Default ZDZ-80

Hello , sounds like you are going with DA which is great, we have a DA-100 in our 36 % AW Edge and it is real sweet with tons of power ! In you r CAP I would highly consider a ZDZ 80. We had one in ours and it was a fantastic combo ! It also helped to keep it nice and lite with wonderful power - it would hover at high idle and blast to the moon when ya hit it. Yes the 80 single has some vibration but not to bad at all and it had fantastic throttle responce too. Just my 2 cents. Have FUN !! Rod & Chris in PA.

If you want to 3D/Freestyle go with the ZDZ80 (The plane can weigh around 21 lbs and have a nice wing loading)

If you want to IMAC go with the 100's (The plane can weigh 25 lbs, be more nose heavy and have better verticle pull).

Here is mine flying with the 80 (Highwire video in lower left):

Best of Luck to you!
