Ok, below is what BCCHI said in his post, It looks like there maybe a problem with the rings wearing out too quickly or not seating properly. He even says he has a 30 that has poor compression. read below.


The ring we took out looked like crap under a mag glass.I am flying one 30 that has pretty poor compression not much time on this one

I was REALLY hoping by now most if any bugs were worked out of the dle 30 engine. I got Burned SSOOOOO bad on my first one, that now I am gun shy about buying another one.

You w8ye are somebody I trust, and you posted a question as to maybe the ring had chipped edges. What would cause the chipped edges?

I have read so much about how the 30 engine has so much power. That I would like to put one on one of my planes I am using to learn 3d on.

Can anybody suggest a good reliable 30cc engine? Just pm me. Thanks to all!!
