Default RE: DL-50 engine

Hey gr8taz nitro, what is that plane? I have a Lanier 80 in. Cap 232 I am considering putting my DL in. Is your plane about the same size?
It's a 3d Hobbyshop 87" katana. It weighs in on the light side of 15lbs and power is not lacking in anyway. I wouldn't see any problems with you putting one in a 80"lanier.

Your DL should really yank that 3DHS Kat around the sky

It's a beast on power, takeoff was at 1/2 throttle and it was accelerating up into a 25mph headwind.
