Yip it was 20 with the 100twin but the 65 is 700 grams lighter than the 100
look it will definatly fly with the 65 but will it 3D mmmmmmmmm I think so and if it does then boy will it have a light wing loading

Mine is 19 lbs wet, Its not hugely overpowerd, but it will hover at around 1/2 throttle at the coast. It has a good climp out, not a rocket but good for 3D. I think try it, I still have one 65cc left..LOL

Hey Hohn O
It is made in China its one of the success stories from China my bud in Namibia ( Andreas ) has two of the 48cc twins and he is so stoked with them that he's ordered some 100's to . I need a 150cc motor since my engine sponsor and I have decieded not to work together anymore. I need the 150cc for a 43% Edge for TOC later this year and im thinking of the 150cc DZY.

Is that your RC L yak ???? at 19LBS
My 65 was in my EDGE 540 30% 14LBS can you imagine the power there.
Well the EXTRA is 20LBS but its a 33% so there's loads of wing area there to use I think 2150sq inches.
