Hey guys, need opinions. Figured I may find a few here!!!

Found a 72" 3DHS 330 for sale. Looking for my first gas in the 70-90" range for 3D and IMAC. This one has an MLD 35 on it and a harris smoke system. The engine has about 2 gallons through it. It has a well documented with photos (looks very thorough) rebuild on the wings and nose. It would be PNP for me with a Spektrum Rx. Curious mostly about the engine. Not familiar with MLD. Seems like a descent deal. Any thoughts? Thanks

I just got a 72" Extra as my first gasser (but with a PTE36). If you get it, let's start a thread here and compare notes. The pros can chime in and others can learn from our... ehm... mistakes.

I had an MLD35 on a Slick, ran great with 19x8. only complainant was how the choke worked and a PITA to setup but if this is a PnP the the hard work is done.

Is it in the same weight class as a DLE35 / PTE36 / EME35

Gary, its been 2 years since I had the motor but I recall it was within a few ounces of a DLE30...

DLE35 / PTE36 / EME35 were not available at time of owning the motor...

Thanks so far guys. I'm really ichin on this one. Cody is my mentor on it and he's thinking I can do better local. I'm like a little kid in a candy store with this one. 3DHS, right size, IMAC capable, smoke system. The trigger is becoming hairy!

Sometimes "Could do better" Doesn't work out because there's nothing available. Sometimes it's better to just take the best you can get at the time, and be happy to have what you're looking for. I figure that if it's a good plane, and it's a reasonable price, and you can have it now, why not, just go for it.
