Re: A big THANK YOU to Dessert Aircraft
Here is what DA emailed me back today. I asked about availability and the comparison between it and the 150 on stock mufflers.
"We are anticipating that the 170's will start shipping around the end of May begninning of June. The difference in power on the 170 to the 150 is like the difference between a 100 and a 120. We are looking right now at about a 200 to 300 RPM difference on the high side." |

Re: A big THANK YOU to Dessert Aircraft
Don't let just the RPM sway you in one direction or the other. The spool up from the massive torque is something you only notice about it if you see it in flight.
I just got a brand new 150 and couldn't be happier, but my next engine will be the 170 - it IS worth the extra dough. Seeing is believing. |

Re: A big THANK YOU to Dessert Aircraft
Thanks Charles. Looks like it's a 150. I can't wait that long.

Re: A big THANK YOU to Dessert Aircraft
Hey that was my thinking on my purchase of a DA 150 at Toledo
Great engine, great service and now..an even better price. Thanks to Dave Carr who helped me on the purchase and I can't wait to get her going this spring in my new (well totally redone and modified) Radiowave extra 300S Capcanuck
