Now Now......let's not forget on take off when I caught you after that 3-blade prop (25x12) got unloaded. From a standing hover pull-out you had me slightly with your 28x10 prop, but from straight and level that 110 couldn't hang .....lol.....let me get a 2-blade 27x10 and we'll see who's faster from a pull out.

See you out there for Regionals bud! I might even fly the 88" Yak for kicks laughs and giggles just to have fun.

Let me know when you want that rematch, I know where there is a 28x12 so I don't rip the tips off of the 28x10. Just admit it you got smoked. You will have to hand launch that 27x10 no ground clearence Clarence. Tell your mom I said Hi.

Hey Jeff!
I'm working on an 88 with an 85. I'll race ya at FX3D (I'll leave my pink behind!)
I got a good deal on a beat up 88 so I figured what the heck!
I may put my 50 and a pipe on another 88 for comparison.

no, just giving Parker a hard time, he and I go way back, as a matter of fact he still has my first and only DA-50, another long story.

DLE Makes a 55cc now that pulls like a Rabid Bull kicked in the nuts. I know, it's a Chinese-made engine, and personally I fly DA, but for the price and power, it's not too bad.
We've got a 30cc MX2 on the way to try out. We're going to put a DLE 30cc that we picked-up last trip to Shenzhen on the front and see what happens.
I wish that DA made a 35cc rear carb. Maybe they will soon.

Hi Gator
Did you finish your Yak with the 85? How is it going?
