Default DA-120 Video

Guys for you that are wondering about the power the DA-120 has and if it is worth it, here is the video of a DA-120 on my OMP Yak 55 I have.

The OMP Yak use to have a old 3w100 in it. I took the engine out and replaced it with the DA-120 and man its some scary power! Running a 28x12 Mej prop on there. I kept the 3w canisters though and just bought DA headers. So far its a great combo! Took 3lbs of weight off the plane making this upgrade!

Yea it is good to hear the engine, but without music makes it boring!!! I try to pick the best music to fit the flight so it is some way related to the flight. I am saving a new file now with no music. Ill post in a little bit.

This is a model airplane gas engine forum. I came here to listen to engines and talk about them. I just love to hear engines. Been doing it over 60 years.

I make music too but not in this forum

You can hear the engine with the music actually. And yes this is a gas engine forum, I am showing the power the Gas Engine has for this size of airplane.

That sounds like an old guy crashing a 4star into the pits.... just sayin... I prefer the one with the music... compliments the engine and flying skills!


Great job!

That was good. That was just like being at the local flying field.

You did a good flight and the engine was perfect

I loved the engine music. No need for two tunes overlapping in the same video. Thanks for the second movie.

Nice flying Kevin. Glad you went with the 120 now? DA hit a homerun with this one!

I am a musician but I don't care much for music in airplane videos. I am there just trying to see what the plane will do.
Music can be distracting if it is annoying to one watching. JMHO........
