Engine mounting ?
 

I have a Yak 72 inch wing span, I'm going to put a dle 30cc side carb on it, Just wondering if any has tryed this. I see Valley view rc is selling yaks with 30cc. y question is should i mount the enging upside down? Its brand new in the box.

I just assembled one of the YAKs from Aeroworks and used the DLE 30 inverted. Plenty of room and the engines don't know they are upside down.;) Valley View!! Thanks for that. I was trying to remember the name last week and had a brain fart, total lock up on my part. So far the best prices I have seen on the DLEs, great engines!!

I Second what Gray Beard said. The engine doe's not care. Tom at Valley View RC is great, just call him anytime, he will give you any advice you need.I have bought quite a bit of stuff from him, fair in his pricing and shipping!

Hey guys. Will the Aeroworks yak 54 72" accept a DLE 30?

RE: Engine mounting ?
 

Yes. When my old student decided on the YAK and Aeroworks it was AW that recommended the DLE 30 to him for the plane. The combo makes for a good IMAC or 3-D plane. The airframe holds up well to it.

Thanks for the info. I really like the color scheme on the that particular airframe.

As color blind as I am I can see that plane very well. There is enough yellow and contrasting colors on it and the desiner did a great job putting all the contrasting colors in the right spot.

Gray Beard. Do you have any pics of your aeroworks yak showing how you mounted the DLE 30?
