Default New DLE 111

Does anyone know if anyone in the US has these engines for sale yet? There's several people who are selling them, but they ship from China & takes about 2 weeks.

Thanks--JC

Also , I forgot to mention, if i ordered from a prodealer, I can get the DLE 111 for $660 vs $800 for the Area 102, but I just wanted to hear from users of both. I know there is good & bad on everything, but just wanted to gather some info first before making my decision.

Thanks--JC

I just talked to TBM & they have the DLEs in stock for $700 with a free temp gun. Since I need one by next week, I'll probably go with TBM but I want to talk to Milton first.

Thanks--JC

Wow. $590 for a DLE 111 with mufflers. I just paid $1,315 for a new DA 100-L with mufflers.

I had the exact opposite experience with my DA-50. Wish I had gone with DL and no head ache.

Gotta get me a funny post Smiley Face. The two prior posts cracked me up !

With all the experience here on FG I'm positive I could get any of them to run fine regardless of an engines individual issue.

I like how on the redplane website that someone listed as a link for the best price it says that the dl's are being discontinued and the dle's are the next best thing. Can one still get parts for the dl line of engines?

Fox manufacturing has just started offering the dl brand engines and has a full service and repair shop for hem. They also sell parts and will soon sell after market parts like smoke mufflers and a few upgraded parts

Another China distributor looking to undercut the American dealer and having no history to support the statement about best after sale support. E caveat emptor (let the buyer beware) definately applies.
