First of all, what is a "DL"?????? 2nd of all, none of you have ever tried the 3MM toc engine. Sure its a couple of oz heavier,but it is 3cc's bigger!!! Produces more rpms. So, I would like to hear from those who have or seen or flew a 3MM TOC engine and not those with so called theories. I have and flown a DA50 and I love that engine but I am open to NEW products that are cheaperin price that is produced in other places. The plane for the 50's are capable to fly with a few oz either in the + or - range. Power is what it is all about.
Uhh... size doesn't have much to do with it.. sorry. You haven't heard of a DL?? There has been more hype about that engine in the last year than any other overseas import.
I have spoken in detail with someone who did testing on this engine awhile back and have seen numbers posted on it. Its not even close to the most powerful 50 sized motor out there... in fact there are many that are more powerful.
This is common knowledge... as I stated earlier the 3MM has 3 bearings which makes it a nice smooth running engine... it has power but there are better out there. You have a DA? I know that DA is stronger and I am not even a DA supporter.. thats just a fact.
