New Product
EF Extra 78" (DLE 30 to DA-35) on proflow canister!

Just got my new Extreme Flight Extra 78" ARF. Im hoping this will be a sweet ride!

I am setting it up with all 7955's on surfaces, 5685MH on throttle. Tech-aero Ibec will be used on ignition, 2x lipos for power, JR 921 rx receiver.

Starting out with a well broken in DLE-30 and vess 20A prop. i will report on this combination as my build is completed. However, when I get my hands on a DA-35 I will be doing a comparason. I will be running Planebender's pro-flow canister on both powerplants.

Pictures and video will be on its way as weather straightens out!

Looking forward to seeing how both perform! My Syssa hauls my 78" around really nice.

I'm running the Vess 18.5X5.5. It fits my flying style really well.. Instant punch and tractor like pulling... Not a fast prop, but handles the plane very nicely... My motor was broken in many many gallons ago... lol

The Syssa has been rock solid for over 1000 flights... I have no reason to change but I am curious as to how the DA performs.

I just installed a Proflow on my 50cc hempel yak. Love the canister so far, it really quiets my plane down and i like the performance as well. Im really looking foward to the DA-35 coming out.

Thanks, I have a buddy who has a brand new one on this plane running an 18x6 Xoar. It's ok but he's going to try some other props and give it a few gallons to break in.

it takes a while to break it in... I ran a gallon of break-in oil, then switched... the engine gained power for over a year after... At first the engine could not even hover the plane, but the power has nearly doubled..

Cool, thanks, I'll let him know. He has one with the Syssa on the oem muffler and one with a DLE 30 w/ ES composite tuned pipe. Should have them both in the air next wk or so to compare.

Do you think the DLE-30 will require relocation of the firewall?
