Brison 2.4 or DA50?
Which engine would work out the best for my World Models P-51 GS miss america? It is suppose to be around 15lbs with a glow 1.6 or 1.8 engine. Would the DA50 be overkill?
Thanks,
Mike

RE: Brison 2.4 or DA50?
both DA and the 2.4 will be over power!!!
especialy the DA50!
i have a H9 extra 260 27% with a B2.4 my friend have the same plane with a DA50.
the 2.4 is more than enough for 3D while the DA50 is extreemly over powered!![:@]
get a G38 or similar Gas engine.
unless u want to get 3D with P51...?!
enjoy...

Might as well get the DA , I bet the weight difference between the Brison is not much at all,, , the DA is 4.14 pounds muff,ignition box,ete,etc, RTF so I bet the brison is close,, does anyone have any number on the 2.4 Brison,,,

I know the zenoahs will be too heavy. The brison sounds like a better match (in the review they used a supertiger g2300 18x8 prop and it looked like it could have had a bit more power). I read somewhere that Brison will only replace your crankshaft 1 time, even though the warranty is 3 or 5 years??? Is this true, If so DA has my bid and I will under prop it to a 20x8.

Hi Aces,
I don't have any personal experience with the DA, but I do have a Brison 2.4 on a 20lb Pica 1/5th T28, and it's more than enough power. Our elevation is 4200 feet, and it's still more than enough motor. We're looking at a similar usage of your P51 and the T28.
I love the Brison, and have recently purchased a NIB Brison 2.6 for an 86" sport plane that should weigh about 17lbs.
Hope this helps.

Hello Everyone. DA50r -vs - 2.4 Brison.. This does not even make sense. It is not fair to the Brison.
DA50r is a 50cc engine.
Brison 2.4 is a 39cc engine.
You guys should be looking at the Brison 3.2. Which is 52cc.. That would make more sense.

Im just looking for a better motor for my p-51. It makes sense because DA doesnt sell a smaller motor. Should I be worried about crank issues with a brison?

RE: Brison 2.4 or DA50?
Gadix, Trust me I give many props to BRISON. I have 2 3.2's and 1 2.4. However, my 2.4 will not keep up with a DA50.. Not a chance! However, My 3.2 will!
Brison 2.4 will give you 4.2HP however, this does not compair to the DA power.. I do not fly DA but, my bud does and his 14 pound plane has ultimited performance. If this 14# plane had the Brison 2.4 it would not have anything close to the power of the DA.
Trust me..
I suggest that you get a DA and you will see.

In this size range there are others to consider too. ZDZ-40 and ZDZ-50 and they are coming out with a light weight 40cc motor soon. BME has their 55cc motor coming out soon. MVVS has a 45cc motor.

Yes but at over $800 its a bit out of my price range! [X(] Thanks for the advice guys. I think the brison will be a better just overpowering it a bit.
