    Molded fiberglass fuel tanks?

    Just figured I'd look around to see what I've got on the shelf and found this! Woohoo! 16oz and fits perfect! But, for the heck of it, how would I make a fiberglass tank if I wanted to?

    Molded fiberglass fuel tanks?

    Hey folks, Was just wondering what tricks there are to making a custom molded fiberglass fuel tank. Is the fiberglass resin naturally resistant to the fuel or does it have to be sealed after it's made? I'd like to get a tank to mount right on the CG for my Laser but there's a little over an...

    Is a DLE-61 any good?

    I noticed that the EME engines are less money but I'm inclined to buy used. Was going to spend the extra money for a DA but there aren't any to be found and I can't afford a new one at the moment. Thanks! Bart

    Is a DLE-61 any good?

    Thanks guys, went ahead and bought it used so we'll see how it does. it'll be a big weight savings over the G62 it is replacing and i'll be able to remove the weight in the tail so i'm excited. bart

    Is a DLE-61 any good?

    only problem with a twin is it's less power for more weight. other than that i've really LOVED the sound and smooth running twins I've had. hmm, don't be buying me out over there :cool:

    Resurrection Aeroworks 85cc Yak

    what's the extent of the damage? Aeroworks planes are pretty well respected so it's worth the effort to get it going again. if the firewall is solid and set up already for the engine it might be unnecessary to pull it out and replace it.

    Is a DLE-61 any good?

    Been looking for a DA-60 but if that doesn't come through is the DLE-61 any good? I know the 110, 55 and 30/35 were popular but the chinese manufacturers don't necessarily nail it with every try.....so is the 61 safe or a dog? Thanks! Bart

    Looking to buy a good, used DA-60. I've got a muffler and I'm going to have to make the stand-offs to fit the plane so I only really need the engine and ignition. My budget is about $400, if that works for you then let's talk! I've got a really nice used DA-50, a very good Zenoah G-26 EI...
