    New DA 60 not start

    Are you getting fuel to the carb, if not on the carb loosen the big screw on the plate on the carb it will lrt fuel get to the carb. I had that happen to a brand new DLE-61.--Smitty

    hi

    I am surprised that he keeps posting this on different sites when it is clearly his own fault. He has this on GiantScaleNews is 3 different threads.

    Is this prop safe to use ?

    My thoughts are if you had to ask, you already knew the answer. I wouldn't put it on my plane as others have said if it comes apart it will destroy your airframe.---Smitty

Didn't need near the amount of rudder that I thought I would...

    Cylinder head Temp

    Hey guys, checked my cylinder head temp yesterday and it read 200F, is that way out of line with what it should be. The DLE-61 runs great and never had a problem cranking or while in flight.

    Su-26M Knife Edge

    Ok, thanks for the input, The plane when rolled inverted at a 45 degree angle indicates it is a tad nose heavy. The plane fly great other than the knife edge. I will figure it out.--Smitty
