DLE-222
 

Here is an interesting video that someone had posted in another thread. I thought it might deserve it's own thread. Looks like someone has joined two DL-100's together.

As soon as they hit the market, I'll be all over one of those like stink on a turd.
I wish the were on the market right now. It is sure to start another DA/DL war on the forums. :D It going to haul my Ultimate around with some authority I reckon.

If I recall it was you that had posted the link in the other thread. Is this engine in development or is it a one off that somebody put together with 2 engines?

RE: DLE-222
 

Milton it is a 34x10. There are a bunch of pics on page 2258 of the giants from down under thread on the "other forum"

RE: DLE-222
 

Yup, What Super8 said. Apparently it is not far from being available to us here in Auz, so you mob on your side of the world will probably see it before us.
I just been waiting for this thing. Its like it was built to suit my Ultimate. :D

RE: DLE-222
 

Accidently, i just find one of my folders holds some pictures, you guys might insteresting on this. Anyway large toy is not my favorite.:D:D

RE: DLE-222
 

All it need now is some kind of custom header or exhaust system,

RE: DLE-222
 

Do the two ignitions share the same timing sensor?

RE: DLE-222
 

No the sensors are 180 degrees apart.

RE: DLE-222
 

Cool.

RE: DLE-222
 

looks impressive, i wonder how much they will go for?

RE: DLE-222
 

Probably the price of a DA-100.

RE: DLE-222
 

i was thinking about the price of a 150 DA

RE: DLE-222
 

$999

RE: DLE-222
 

I'm hearing for around the same money as a DA 100 as well. I'm definitely mounting one on the front of my 46% Ultimate.
Anyone have a release date yet?.

RE: DLE-222
 

kewl so what does it weight about a dl100 x 2 less some ?

RE: DLE-222
 

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Can see that becoming a problem, along with guys not quite up on tuning multiple carb's getting into some grief.
I can see a temp gun being a pretty handy tool for tuning this engine.

RE: DLE-222
 

According to the picture someone posted 10.85 lbs

That is without mufflers and ignitions

RE: DLE-222
 

i was there, it wasn't that hard to start, actually you can start the engine by turning the prop with your hand only if you had enough experiences of 4 cylinder engine before. we started it with a stick.

it probably takes monthes until it's final released.

RE: DLE-222
 

Hopefully it produces power equivalent to it's displacement. That's tough to make happen when joining two engines together. Even tougher is having a crank/joiner that will hold up.

RE: DLE-222
 

I can't see the need for 4 cylinders. If they could design their own engine, maybe they could do up a 200cc twin.

RE: DLE-222
 

I cant see it , but I can hear it.

RE: DLE-222
 

wohenzhuce. any further news on the 222?. release date, exhuast development and proposed cost?
