Jim,
Great pictures!! Thanks for posting them sir.

Carl,
That pilot looks great in the Yak. It looks like it was moulded in at the factory.

jaguar bone,
I have seen pictures of your scale pilots and I just wanted to say, they look Top Shelf!!! Excellent work!
And don't feel bad about not having enough time to build your kit, I have a Composite Arf 2.3m Extra that has been waiting to get finished for well over a year and a half LOL.

Which reminds me, I need to post some pics of the build progress so far on my Compy.

Shawn

Hey Carl.... and others,


DL Engines available from TBM



DL Engine Performance: TBM has tested many engines over the years, and DL is one that has performed very well in our tests and in the marketplace. Their low price is really attractive!! Hundreds of engines have been sold and all performance issues have now been sorted out. While DL engines are excellent, service and warranty are important aspects. Please read the service and warranty information provided below.
DL Warranty: DL engines are guaranteed to be free of mechanical (not electrical) defects at the time of purchase. If you have a defective part at the time of purchase, TBM will replace the part. The defective part must be returned unless a photo will suffice. Please call the TBM returns department before returning anything. The customer is responsible for the shipping charges for returning the defective part to TBM (if necessary) and the shipping charge of the new part to the customer. There is no warranty on ignitions because they are electrical and can fail if they see more than 6v.
Repair service center: TBM does not have repair facilities for any brand of engine. We refer you to Ed Gamils for repairs. Deal directly with Ed for pricing on repairs.

Ed Gamils
701 Royal Poinciana
Punta Gorda, Fl 33955
egamils@hotmail.com
941-575-8047

Factory Authorized DL Service from TBM: In order to provide superior service to DL customers, TBM is now factory authorized to service DL engines in Sarasota Florida. TBM will provide warranty work as well as repairs after warranty. Standard labor and shipping rates apply. TBM will service all DL engines, not just the ones sold by TBM.

Spare Parts for DL engines: TBM carries all spare parts for the engines.

Why purchase DL engines from TBM? The manufacturer sets the retail pricing, so the pricing should be similar from any source. TBM offers a few extra incentives to purchase from time to time, so check our website and sign up for our newsletter. If you see a price that is better than ours, please let us know and we will match that price.


Jim

Jim,

That's great news for all the DL owners out there. The guys at TBM are great to deal with too.

Donnie any Sunday would be good. C.J. has to work on Saturdays and I would like for him to join in the fun. Maybe you can rekindle the r/c spark in him again. I think we bore him since we don't challenge his skills.

Jim same price as DLUSA with a few goodies thrown in. That offsets the free shipping from Texas. TBM being in Fla. means you'll get service a lot quicker. Look how long I waited for mine to show up.

I agree he always laughs at my feeble attempt at DDD.
Now IMAC it's like I'm the kid, he sounds like me yelling at him.
