Thats a very general question please be a little more specific. Or answers will be #1 a plane a prop etc............... If you want a DA do you know what type of battery it takes to run the ignition? Do you want to use lipos?

Send DA a check for $1,000.00. Include a note that states you want a DA 50 and everything it needs to run correctly. Ask for the change. I'll lay odds that you get exactly that, AND the change.

Actually I would agree with him... DA is that good...

they would give you exactly what you need.....engine, muffler, prop, spinner, guide for drilling prop...


Well... the one thing that wasn't mentioned.....is a good airframe!!! You need an airplane to go with it!!!

Or just save some cash and get a DL from dlusa.net Good engine and every bit as powerful as a DA. Then you could take the extra $300 and buy some servos for the airframe.

Truthfully the DL may be better than the DA. It actually has correctly sized reed and carb on it. The machine work is impeccable as well.

www.dlusa.net
is probably the best place to get it. They do a quality inpection of the engine before they ship it. Very good people.

SilverSurfer:
I have decided to try a DA carb on mine, but am leaving the reed the same. I saw in the other forum this helped get a few more hundred rpm out of it. Your thoughts?
