Plane for DL30?

[BoneDoc]

3D Hobby Shop is coming out with a line of 65" - 70" planes that will be suitable for the DLE 30.

Sounds like there's going to be a great market for this engine, as evidenced by all the manufacturers jumping into this. It could be the next 50cc .

What is the estimated weight and prices on the new ones? Will you have combo pricing? If you want someone to test one for you, just let me know. This smaller size is just what I am looking for right now.

Estimated weight with the DLE-30 is about 10 lbs. The earlier versions were capable of coming in under 10, I have not been able to weigh the new ones yet but they are still VERY light.

The price of the plane alone will be $319. Combo with DLE-30/muffler, complete hardware, prop and spinner will be $679, a savings of $61. That will include one of our 19-8 bunny props and a 3" Dave Brown aluminum spinner.

We'll have a servo package of 4 HD DS120M servos plus extensions for $159.

For our part we've had these 73" planes for many years, but they were always lacking a decent gas engine. Now I think that problem is solved and the size will be very popular.

It's a size that's big enough to fly well but still small enough to fit in a sedan.

Looks like I will be waiting till the end of September for a new plane then. Will you have any other servo packages like Hitec? I have had terrible luck with the DS120 servos.

[wildhare]

I also have the 9110s and 9150s and a few other numbers. Of course I have Hitec packages as well.

It looks like the 5485HB will be perfect for this plane, assuming it is more accurate than the 5645. If so I'll have a package with the 5485s.

I will order a few of them to see how they work. The specs are perfect for this size plane.

I found a NIB plane for a great price. I think this should be a good match for the DL30.

I'm planning to put this engine on a Somenzini 72", I have had a lot of problems with the engine of this plane...

First of all, YS 140 sport, not enough power to 3D.
then Evolution 35cc, more power, but, but, A LOT OF WEIGHT. Snaps almost 90% of time. Weight is about 13lbs, too much for the wing loading.

Then I'm planning to buy one DL-30 for this beautiful plane, but I'm not sure if this engine is enough for 3D or should I add an OS 160?

The DL 30 will be plenty of power for you.

Kevin Elders orange/blue scheme is awesome. It was my desktop pic for awhile. Good choice and at $319, a good pick.

Has anyone used the AW Yak 54 .90-1.20 w/DLE 30cc combo? I have a copy of the mounting template for the DLE and noticed that the mounting holes and the firewall of the AW Yak is almost the exact same size. Mounting template holes: 54mm x 70mm, the firewall is about 2-3mm larger. What do ya do?????? I thinking about getting this motor but I don't want to spend the $$$ if this is not going to work. If it can't, I'll go with the new MLD 28cc.

hi,
i read with interest, i got an edge540T V2 from wildhare and also another edge 26cc class with a poor 26 cc jc engine.
First thing is; JC engines are crap, weak ! it would ertainly be better with the DL 30.
The flying charecteristics of the 50cc gasser are much better than te smaller one! stability is incredibly better with the "tall one".
I come a bit late on the subject, is there some news about this flying project ?
Kind regards Olivier
