Both will work very well if you are fishing in quite deep water pretty much on par with each other for that purpose in fact.

What specific purpose did you have in mind?

and what oil should each run on?

Dude - you need to give more information if you want replies any better than those you already have. - such as which models are you comparing and where you intend to use them.

Ok I'll go first. LOL Where is my Dr. Spock hat ?

I would say the DA is better since it is designed for models from the start.

If cost is an issue then the US is better.


I believe DA has a higher power to weight ratio.


DA has a nicer finish , if you like to see yourself in your models engine.

Desert Aircraft is a cooler name than US Engines.

US could mean Unserviceable & DA could mean Dumb *****

Both are made in the USA.

Of course that doesn't always mean good quality. My RV has a huge sticker on it saying 'Proudly Made in the USA" and I sure wouldn't be to proud of the quality of workmanship on it.

Guess that's why the RV company went out of business.

OK I have now stirred the caldrine. Now let's see what boils over. ;-)

DA for sure.... US Engines(the brand) are pretty low on power. My brother had a US 41 that would barely swing an 18x6. A DLE 30 is more powerful and a couple of pounds lighter

With a handle like yours I can see why you have a problem deciding, but if you have some molla burning a hole in your pocket get a DA, and if you need an anchor get the US Eng.

That one's easy. The one that puts out then leaves without telling anyone she was with you.

I got a 50cc plane and needs me a engine for it. Heard a lot about US engines and how well they run.

If you want excellent service and turn around time on repairs, you can't beat D.A. I crashed a plane, sent the engine in for repairs. It was back in my hands in 10 days from the day I mailed it out! It runs great after the repair. I now own 4 D.A. engines and all run very reliably from the 100cc twin down to the 50cc size.
