Hey guys,Anybody got one? Im building a Texas rc Profile Katana v2.arf1.20 67 in wing sp. manuel states 26cc. with motor rtfshould be around 11-12 #. got a new dle 20 & used dle 30. 20 will drop in but dont know if it will have enough authority. 30 is gonna take some mods and might beto much. I had 30 on seagull 1.80 extra 260. weighed 13.5# and the 30 yanked it around with plenty of power to spare.Appreciate your recomendations. thanks.



TAKE CARE AND PRAYFOR GOOD AIR !

put that 30 on that the 20 works well under 9 lbs

If it's that heavy, I agree. Trying to have fun with an 11lb+ plane on 20 power is stretching it a bit. I have a 20 in an 11.5lb Seagull Decathlon. It works pretty good, but I'd be looking for a LOT more from a profile...

T hat plane sounds way to heavy to fly 3D. No matter what engine.

At 67" (and I think much less than 9lb) the 20 should have no problem. Beam mount will be a lot easier to fit. Looks to be a plane designed around a 120 glow engine.

Regarding weight, my 71" Ki61 with 7 servos, retracts and RCGF15 with a full tank only comes out at 9lb 1oz!

I think TexasRC advertise 20 to 28cc to cover the MLD28 that they sell.
