Since when would DA want to be compared with a Zenoah?

I hear ya Mith!
Jens I don't see what you mean but I respect you. The topic is kinda fun and that is the only thing I am in this for, not that anyone else is in for anything else. If it's got wings or rotors, I'll fly it or try to. I've flown very expensive large and small models and cheap ones too, bottom line is, I fly for fun. DA30cc on a very nice small easy to transport plane that is backed by the DA name and service would fit into my RC diet perfectly. Like Mith said though, electric IS becoming an excellent choice, even in this size. I love my fliton inspire mini. Got a ton of time on it. Fly what you like. !~).

Jensy, quite frankly, this entire website is an unsolicited opinion. Not trying to be a jerk, just making sure everyone remains friends, and enjoys themselves.

And to the topic, I think it would be cool to see a wider variety of engines in the 25-35cc class as we've seen the big 3d aerobats get smaller over the past few years with similar performance. The more choices we have as consumers, the better. I voted yes.

Concur with Mr. JoeKelly as well. How you doin' by the way bro?

I think it would be a good thing for DA - and us as modelers.
The rear carb would sell me simply because it is needed to help cowl-in this plane's powerplant. All the current choices are broad wasted overly fat ( relative to their smaller size) engines already out there. Too damn much width with muff & carb on the sides. Using same boxy carb as a G65 size!

I shelved a GP Ryan Sta-M ( redone fuse & pants covering in bright aluminum) two years ago simply because I don't want to cut a huge freakin' holes in the side - or pay $550 for a petrol converted Mark-MOKI . So I be awaitin' for ya DA- note this polls #'s are proving a 25cc worthwhile.

I think warbird guys would scarf em.
I'll be happy to purchase #0001.

jaguar bone I will take #2. A 120 size plane like the Extra 300S would make a good home for it.

There are already great running 25-35cc gas engines, also for warbirds. What's wrong with the MVVS/Evolution G26 and G35? And there's the 3W26, which is supposed to be very strong. I've had the MVVS G35 and it was as strong as a ZDZ40, it was a good alternative to a Moki 2.10.

"DA 25-30CC FOR 120 SIZE PLANES"

What does that have to do with a 3W, ZDZ, Zenoah, and MVVS/Evolution not being DA's?
