You know fella the only thing I can suggest is go buy one of them. It's obviously what you wanted to do in the first place. You claim you already bought and returned a DL so I really don't see any point in trying to explain it to you. BTW Where did you buy that DL?

I just found out another modeler in my area is installing a DL 50 in his Ultimate. Looks like I'll be playing with one soon!

Al, that is great RPM with the DL50 and the Vess 23A, how much thrust is that giving you?

I was referring to the DL you bought. The one with 1/8" of play in the 5mm prop bolts.

You would have to ask Hughes500e that. He's up in your neck of the woods.

Why wouldn't they? The MT-57 for sure is a good engine (if you need some extra nose weight ).
