I'm new to RCU and I'm planning to buy a dle30 with rear carb. for my extreme flight yak 54 74".
Would I have enough power for beginning 3D? How much throttle for hovering?
And what would you guys suggest for prop when running in?
I have a rear intake DLE 30 on my Pilot 73" Yak 54 at about 11 lbs + fuel and it wil hover at about 1/3 throttle ( actually more like 1/4 as I have set a throttle curve) using a Zoar 19 x 3D A prop. It will easily climb out of the hover given more throttle, actually it will keep climbing till it's a speck.
I am using a CRRC pitts type muffler to keep the noise down so if you use the stock ( yet noisey) muffler you will have a little more power.
The 3 DA prop has a little more punch at this throttle setting than the Zoar 19x8 but both will be good for learning 3D with your DLE 30
