    I got the cowl cut and installed. Also Prop and spinner are installed. I wish I would of listen to AeroWorks, they suggested and recommend the Pitts style muffler over stock. The stock muffler completely sticks out out the front of the cowl...does not look terrible, but would of been so much...

    DLE 61

    I don't know much about the GP, but I know the DA 60 has more power then the DLE, but for the price of the DLE compared to the DA and the good luck I have had with DLE (knock on word) that is the motor I went with. Plus on the Aeroworks 88 edge 540 qb the DLE should be able to pull that plane...

    DLE 61

    I am not trying to confuse.. when I was looking at the diagram that Tower-hobbies has...I was adding the 172mm and 68mm cause of the way the diagram looked...By the diagram the engine is way to big for the plane I have. Then you added the correct diagram that shows the correct dimensions of...

    DLE 61

    DLE 61

    Before the diagrams that Kork and Truckracer I looked at recesses the carb, but that would not have worked, cause the plane I have is 171 MM from the firewall to the front of the cowl...i would have had to more the firewall back and would not have wanted to do that..lol.. Thanks for the help all

    DLE 61

    Does anyone know if the spec are right on the DLE 61?? Say nearly 9 1/2 inches from stock stand off to prop hub. Hoping I did not order a motor that is going to be hell to fight to my new plane.
