very nice flight!!! One day I'll get one and put A YS70 in it - I just can't stand 2 stroke gas engines or 2 stroke glow... Hovering.. just buy a helicopter, that's my motto. Anyhow, great looking maiden flight.. But before anyone starts to badger me about my idea on gas engines - do the math: 480grams and only one battery vs 2000 grams and a separate battery to boot - power to weight plus a better sound, my vote goes to YS 4 strokes.
Great vid. Jtech does make awesome mufflers. Takes a couple weeks tho because they are made to order. But excellent build quality. Well worth the time and $.
nice flying great sounding motor dude DLE 20 perfect power house for that model you have I have a weedeater conversion on my 120 check it out on my channel instant throttle response
Nice Video. It was because of your 1st video that I picked up a DLE 20 for my Funtana 90. My 1st flight was in the rain too! I couldn't wait. I'm already looking for a new plane to put it in. Extra or a Yak 54?....it's a toss up.
FYI the DLE 20cc has enough power to hover a 10lbs plane with just a little extra in reserve. But then again, my DLE might not be fully broken in. Maybe more power to come...
@bells33 .. Your skills look just fine. Good flying.
I imagine when I get mine ready I will not be ripping it either. Love this video, because it is the exact setup that I have purchased. Got the plane Friday. Engine is on back-order until mid Nov. :o(
What made you decide to get a 17x6? The 16x6 (Master Prop K-series)is the exact prop pitch I was going to start with. It's still sealed up in bag. Let me know.
@NumberTenGi - I went to an XOAR 17x6 which was really really powerful. I switched back to the Zinger 16x6 to complete the break-in..... haha... no fees!!
Right now I have an Evolution 16x6... (broke the Zinger). Same power (a lot).
hopw much weight did you have to add up front?

I have the exact plane with a Saito 82 in it. Just curious what your all up weight is. (without fuel) Also... How many ounce fuel tank?

Do you think it has the power to hover? What oil are you using as mix?
Lookin Good !!!!

@NumberTenGi - My 3D skills are not all there yet... but I think she will hover just fine. It seems to have unlimited vertical power.
Im using Evolution oil. 30:1 mix. Let me know how it goes with yours.

You can be my test pilot. What's the fee?
