Default RE: DL-50 engine

As Lou said, i got the 27% GP Cap 232 with a DL 50. The plane comes in at 13.5 pounds. I think the wingloading is around 25-27oz a aquare ft. It was designed for a fuji 43cc wich weighs 1/2 pound more than the DL. Was very surprised when i flew it to find that the plane has FANTASTIC low speed characteristics. I have done some stall testing on low rates and it didn't want to drop a wing, on low rates! I couln't even imagen it with an os 160. LOL
