    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    Yeah, I wanted to try a GP-176EVO since I got back in July. Seems plenty strong, but I read those problems and stayed away for now. I know from experience, though, that things change. Oftentimes with companies they will beat the field with their product, then ride on their reputation until the...

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    A lot more power on stock mufflers than most other brands (except ZDZ). Half price, of a lot of brands. And, I'm trying to talk Joe Nolasco @ P1 Hobbies into charging an extra $75 for them... and testing them before he ships them out. Actually I think I already did talk him into it... he just...

    I don't really want to editorialize, you know? :laughing:

    Yeah, the ZDZ-180... in my experience so far... is definitely best in class. DLE would be second. The others? I'm not that excited about them. hehe

    Yeah, from my experience so far, it seems like the DLE 170 gives great performance and a great price too. :)

    I bought their ignition tester, wrote them an email asking a question about it, and never heard back. :/

    I noticed they were really inexpensive. I'm not worried about gaining rpms, I just don't want to lose any rpms, if possible. :) I would be running them for sound, too.

    So just replace the sensor? Or you have to replace the ignition, too?

    I liked to do some custom NACA ducts on the top of my cowl. :) I'll have to look around and see where I can get some made up, or 3D printed up, or something.

    I think Kurt is still looking for feedback on some of the guinea pigs, I mean test pilots, haha, about that. Kurt thinks with the 3 cells and the efficiency of the switching regulators that the run-time should be good.

    Will do, Taz! :)

    Yeah, that landing gear plate look like it was designed more for flying than for landing. haha

    Are you adding cooling fans, Taz? I was just thinking of trying that, like I do with computers. :)

    Looks CLEAN, Taz! Fromeco does have one new product that you might like... they are doing a 3cell setup that regulates to 8.2volts constant. I was talking to them about maybe having it adjustable down to, lets say, 7.4volts constant, as well. That way most all servos would be happy with it. It...

    Hey Taz! I just started doing my wire mounting the same way. Works great!

    Hi Taz! I just did my first set of Secraft pull/pull connectors. I put the brass sleeve in the connector vs outside the connector. Probably good either way, I suspect. :)

    Any comparison between by the DLE stock mufflers and the DLE cans and headers? Why the ignition swap? And, with swapping both the ignition and the carb you are losing a lot of the savings, no?

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    That sounds funny. hehe But, yes, you are right, not much to them. And, they should cost a lot less for that very reason! :O :)

    I put Joe Nolasco's new and known good DLE 170 on my Sukhoi. Check out the vids of Kyle flying this motor at my event, it did great. Although, I wouldn't mind having another ZDZ-180. haha Joe Nolasco of P1 Hobbies fame... is talking about offering a service where he test runs new DLEs before...
