I bought one of this eccellent engine last year and I was amazed how easy it started the first time.Then after the initial running in period I adjusted the high screw a little and now I am enjoing a very powerfull engine at the fraction of the price of his competitor.Thank you Himodel.the only thing thast warries me thqat as the dl 50 has been discontinued now and the new dl55 is being produced,is that if I need spares in the future I would like to know if they are still avaible.

Incredible engine.. Won my heart when I operated it with my friends plane, and won it again when I got my own. Perfect out of box experience. The carb was adjusted the way it should be from the factory. No flaws thru out, no metal shavings inside the engine. Its got the quality and performance with a very affordable price tag, all in one perfect package. JXF 23x8 6500Rpm. Out performs DA50 at less than half the price! Thank you HiModel.
