Thinking about the V2 of the GP123

Why's that? Don't you already have a lightly used 120?

Yes I do... Hence the decisions. I'm curious what all the fuss is about. Both are great engines, I'm sure either will be amazing.

Hmm, ok... I know how a 120 performs with this airframe, so I think I'll stick with the tried and true, myself!

I haven't heard much about the GP123. Is there a thread on it? I love my DLE 111, but DLE is coming out with a 120 that would be very tempting for a $750 price. IMO, the 104 on the DLE111 has plenty of power. And I'm impressed! But if the DLE120 becomes a proven engine. Then I might have to switch.

I've got the GP61 for my 60cc birds, and it's very impressive. Pretty much same power as a DA-60 on pipes.
The DLE-120 looks pretty awesome too, it's thread is here: http://www.3drcforums.com/showthread.php?t=2022

I wish... I stopped (after I laid out the pieces) and built a 70 Velox quick so I could fly it this past weekend.
Starting Friday I'm home for 3+ weeks, I'll get done soon
