That's JKE graphic, not JEK. This new logo was created after my father retired a few years ago. We honor him as the founder by keeping the initials of the old company name in the new name JKE Works, Inc.

Thank-you for the additional information. You have a dream job!

My plan is to install a DLE 130, it is heavier than the GP 123 by around 300gms but if I can install the rudder servo in the tail, I may be able to partially offset the additional nose weight due to heavier engine. Has anyone tried a DLE 130 on this plane?

Few months late, doing some back reading. Did you get around to installing a 130? Both the Mamba 120s in our field fly with a 130 using a push-pull for the rudder. Batteries on the tray where the Aura also sits. I'm thinking of moving the batts back a bit on mine. Falcon spinner and Falcon 29x10.

Just a bit bummed there's no carb repair kit for the 130. And can't seem to find a Walbro counterpart that'll fit without issues. So a new carb is necessary should the time come.

Anyone have a stock gas tank they would like to get rid of?

Anyone else having heat issues with the cans. I followed the directions. Still seams a little warm. Cans on other planes have always been insulated from fuselage with a box and vents right below the cans not under the turtle deck???

I take the canopy off after the flight and use fans in the intakes to cool off the engine.

Any air outlets on the bottom of the fuselage?

I agree with both the above. I will add that as long as you do have a cutout/vent on the bottom of the fuse there will not be much heat build up when the engine is running and moving thru the air as it gets swepped out. The heat you feel is only when you sit after a flight and like it was already said, take the canopy off after landing. This should keep your equipment safe.

This airframe really pushes to the gear in knife edge…..
How much are you guys mixing rudder/elevator.

Just the outlets in the instructions

been trolling here since '19 now the big mamba is ordered and getting a DA 120 on muffs. how are all these planes holding up ? my 70 mamba was a rock hoping the 100 will be the same .

I have both the 70cc and the 120cc. I bought the 70cc when it first appeared for sale at Joe Nall just about 5 years ago. It has been an absolute star, the mist durable ARF, and I believe the best all round airplane I have ever flown. I have a Mamba 120 with about 100 flights, and my experience has been exactly the same. I use DA Motors with DA/Slimline Exhaust. Thx

Thats sounds great. Im getting that 120 mamba hopefully in june. Had the 70 mamba when it was first avail. Flew the crap out that plane and loved every minute. Just sold the carf and going Flexx again

is that container heading our way yet ? waiting sucks but its given me plenty of time to acquire all the essentials
DA 120
Slimline
Promodeler Servos
AR switches
