Simply amazing....Russian had to be This gives you an idea of how good these guys are when it comes to engineering, from rockets to airplanes, from engineers to normal people. Even in the WWII and obviously cold war were the pioneers. Shame it gets shadowed by the Americans and all the propaganda they do giving themselves all the credit as usual.. Awesome!

Hello everyone! It has been a while I havent been at the field as I have been very busy moving house, etc.. and life has been hectic! As I dont live close to Croydon anymore, I think I will not be able to fly at CAMFC very often but will definitely see you guys at the airshow next year and summer BBQ if possible. With all this moving house, etc... havent flown for over 3 months and cant wait to start charging batteries, smelling petrol and getting dirty at the patch again! Will stay in touch through the forum anyway and in the meantime I wish you all a very nice Xmas and Happy

This guy comes from another planet... and still long way to go! amazing

Wow... Not safe though for crowds!

Nostalgia Exactly how we do it..

Been doing more research and I think is to do with the fuel/oil ratio as well... Will try next time and let you guys know.

Quality!

Sorry!, thats right! ... need a holiday...

100:1 mix!! Engine must spit oil all over!

MMmm DLE suggest a 30:1 mix for the engine and heard that pretty much everyone uses 30:1 for 30cc, but will try a 50:1 and see how the engine behaves as it might be the cause of the problem... Thanks.

I run 30:1 mix using Optifuel Premix oil as when I bought the engine second hand the previous owner used this since brand new. Last time I flew the mustang, tried to tweak the High needle thinking about the same, and couldn't solve that raspy sound at high revs... I still think is something to do with tuning the engine as don't thing bearings or vibration is an issue here but I could be wrong. ... Will keep trying..

Sounds good to me.

Symphony of sound...

On the ground it seems to happen but not much. The engine sort of does that but in more irregular intervals. I dont think is the ignition system or anything related with that otherwise it would happen at any given rpm, but again I have not much experience with these petrol engines... I think most likely to be some tuning problem with the H needle...

18x8 Menz Standard for 30cc

Hello! As you may know I purchased this DLE30 second hand to fit in my mustang and after few flights notice that the engine at high rpm sounds a bit weird.. Nothing wrong with that but before I start messing around with it, wanted to ask if anybody can advise on this. As is difficult to explain, I have made a small video with some low passes so you can hear it by yourself. By the way, the plug is brand new and the engine generally speaking performs very well, solid idle and crips throttle response. Suggestions ? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19160388/P51D%20Mustang%20engine.m

Cool, thanks! will try that..

Hello Does anybody know a good varnish to be applied after weathering the plane capable of handling oil stains from petrol engines ? Thanks!

Here are some pics of my mustang with the DLE 30 which I forgot to post ages ago. Just managed to fit it in! Maiden went great. great combo, no regrets. Next time, will be weathering the model. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ghyejoogoseyrr9/9wKLGEa4GF

True... Was really looking forward to it!

Hello guys Looking for a fun fly plane to buy capable of 3D such as the Hangar 9 Twist, Tango, Mojo etc.. Got a spare second hand .75 2 stroke engine that would like to use in the plane. The Hangar 9 twist does a 60 size one but is too expensive, the tango is not big enough and the Mojo 60 has to be build from plan and difficult to get in the UK although you can do crazy stuff with it Any ideas of cool cheap 3D planes out there ?

Hi Arun I installed mine on an improvised table as a bench before putting it on the mustang with plenty of weight on the table and reinforcing the table legs to keep them from moving. It pulls a lot the DLE30 so be careful with the table, make sure is stable and solid as I am sure you know keep tank align with carb. Use plenty of thread lock for the standoffs and bench as everything vibrates like crazy, I had nuts coming off next to the prop and had to sop the engine few times until secure them. By the way is there any such a thing like after run oil for petrol engines when storing t

Just got my new DLE30... What a monster!
