thanks Fred

I don't know what kind of thrust figures you are looking for,but if a DLE 30 is something you are considering,then don't forget about the MLD28 from Cermark.I have one and it is a great running little powerhouse.Just read the threads here on RCU and you will also see what good service Cermark gives with this engine.I bought mine for a Dynaflite Decathlon and so far ,so good.Sorry,I don't have any experience with the DLE30 but I'm sure those who do will be giving their comments.

You should see that broomstick fly.

The DLE 30cc is a new engine, have you read the thread here on them?

The G-26 is a great engine, and is lighter and as powerful as the 38.

From what i'm reading, this plane comes in at close to 20lbs? I'm sure the G-26 would fly it, but there would not be much excess power there.

hey RCDUDE7, I have a g-26 on my super stearman and I love it,but dont think it will pull the staggerwing well.I have read some,on the dle-30 it sounds good have you tried one or seen one flying.I like the brison 2.4 but dont that much about it,do you or anybody out there know?
thanks Fred

RE: witch engine
 

The G-26 is qiute powerful for its size, I very much doubt that the DLE is going to be much stronger.

I have owned the brison 2.4 and it is a very nice engine, mine turned a APC 20X10 @ 7200 rpm, this is much stronger than the G-26 and weighs little more. If you can get one, I would suggest it as a good choice.

RE: witch engine
 

is brison not made anymore?

RE: witch engine
 

I don't know, mine was made in TX when Gary Brison owned the company. Last I heard, brison engines are made elsewhere, by someone else.


I did a quick search and found this: http://www.rc-revolution.com/bri1.htm

RE: witch engine
 

wow they are alot of money,seen them for 449.00.theres one on rcuniverse for 315 but its used.So you are happy with yours?

RE: witch engine
 

Yes, they are well made and run well. Do a search here and you will find much praise of the brison engines.

RE: witch engine
 

ok rcdude7- thanks for the info.think I will go with one of them.Take a look at item#565513 and tell what you think its a brison 2.4 used.
thanks Fred

RE: witch engine
 

Yes, that engine looks good, slight cosmetic damage there, but certainly nothing to be concerned about. The crankshaft in this engine is a cantilever type, so they will stand up to a propstrike better than a three piece crank like a zenoah or similar.

thanks rcdude7

:D:D:D I have a MVVS 35 in my 82 inch ARF GeeBee Y, with an inverted side muffler it will turn a 3W 20x8 at 7200, it gives my GBY good Top Speed, I would say yes it is a bit fast, this setup weighs around 15&1/2 pounds,, I would think for the Staggered Wing a MVVS 35 would need a Larger Diameter 21x6 Less Pitch for better pull off the ground,,

as for the MVVS it's self it is a Top of The Line Engine, it's only draw-back is it's just a bit heavy,, so if you want a new MVVS buy the MVVS 40, it should be a real monster..
