    Speaking of ZDZ 180, what is the restarting procedure like? Still heavily leaning toward that motor for my Dalton 300...

    If you're wanting to try a ZDZ Cam, the 180 has the same mounting dimensions as a DA 170.

    My wife limited the size of my shop and our fun money to keep my addiction under control.

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    Yeah, now I just use a switch for the on/off and then I have the bell crank as the means to kill the motor without having to rely on the radio.

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    I have the headers for a 176 but I still have the quality issues that came about fresh in my mind. I might end up getting a 176EVO after all though, we will see.

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    I'm personally a fan of building a bell crank choke set up. Crashing my Wildhare CAP 232 when I accidentally hit the choke switch on the radio is the reason lol!

    DLE second? Dang! I haven't really looked at them since ValleyView stopped being the service center. Of course, they're so much cheaper that if you couldn't fix it yourself, you could just buy a new one...

    Somehow I missed the ZDZ 180 experience (stupid work trip) but after catching up, I'm thinking ZDZ USA will be getting some business from me.

    ZDZ180B2-J champion

    Question, how low does the carb get relative to the mount? The reason why I ask is that the firewall on a Dalton is not as tall as a Pilot or other plane. It's designed around something like a DA 150/170 etc. and I just want to make sure that if I went this route, that I'd still be able to get...

    Nice CAM, I'm looking forward to hearing how they compare to the Dalton! Also interested in your take on the ZDZ 224!

    IMAC The new Dalton 300 SP / 330

    Yeah, I'm going to have to make one of those jigs too. Do you start with the outer edge to get the surfaces to line up or what's the best way to line things up properly?

    IMAC The new Dalton 300 SP / 330

    A tip someone told me on the beveling once is to take a note card and draw 2 perpendicular lines (A and B) using a square so they're at 90 degrees. Then figure out what angle your bevels need to be at and add those lines (C and C') to the card. Cut out the triangular shape on the card and use...
