The DLE 30 bolt pattern is NOT the same as the RCGF 32. I have both engines, and the RCGF is close, but not the same.

I have a psp jig for zdz 40-160 so the larger 5mm holes should work for a da150 so can I drill them out to 6mm for my da170?

I just drilled a prop with a DLE 30 guide and it won't fit, just a hair small for the RCGF 32. I'll post dimensions when I finish making a guide.

The RCGF 32 worked out to have a 27mm (1.063") bolt circle. I made a drill guide from some leftover steel bar stock that was on hand and it worked out perfectly. I initially used a numbered drill, #22 for the bolt hole guides but that's a really close fit for the 4mm screws at about 3.95mm. I went to an SAE 11/32" drill which has a little more clearance than the #22 but nowhere nearly as much clearance as the 4.5mm drill provided in the commercially made drill guide that was for the DLE 30/35/55.

5mm x 34mm drilling guide.

Can anyone advise where I might buy a 6 x 5mm x 34 mm circle drilling guide please?
I am in Australia.
Some model numbers are listed in the attached screenshot.

Jim.


Edit:
Please ignore. I found one, in my own shed!
I thought the one I had was an imperial measurement one; turned out to be metric after all, the size I wanted.
Silly me............getting old!

RCGF vs: DLE

The hub pattern on a RCGF 60 is the same as a DLE-55

what engine has a 22mm dia circle bolt pattern?

I obtained a big box of giant scale props. Some new, some pre-drilled. I have some that have a 6 bolt 22mm diameter pattern.. Not sure what engines these are for... any ideas? I didn't see any 6 bolt patterns on your guide. (WONDERFUL guide by the way!).
Thanks

Good chance if they are 6 bolt, they will work with anything 3w, DA, ZDZ, DLE, RCGF, etc....
Thing you have to measure is actual bolt diameter and spacing. Also, what size props are they? My 106CS uses six bolts as does many 70cc and up. The prop chart can help with that. List some of the sizes, that can help also.

That's the problem... this is a 6 bolt 22mm diameter bolt pattern... the guide that you have here does NOT list anything with a 22mm bolt pattern . Yes, these props will work on lots of engines, but they are already drilled out to fit something with the above bolt pattern... Any help would be appreciated!

I can confirm that the DA-70 pattern is the same as the DA-60 and DLE55RA
