Gp-123
Hey guys, wanted to post a vid from the awesome weekend at our Spring Opener in Zillah, WA. Put the new V2 GP123 on my 104"Slick and although it's only the second flight let's just say it's not coming off anytime soon... SupaTim tests the 3DHS 104" Slick and the V2 GP12…...- SupaTim

Gp-61
Nope, just fiberglass and they can chip or fail pretty much any time. Also if anything gets sucked in and doesn't allow the reed to lay flat it could prevent the vacuum necessary to draw fuel correctly.- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
Mine are definitely on the ground via the rcexl tach hard mounted in my plane. In Toledo this weekend but will be working on my 92 with the 61 this week as I am now the proud owner of a Demon Cortex... Will give it a tune and see if I can squeeze any more out of it as I literally haven't touched...- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
Here it all is in action 2 weekends ago now. What it doesn't have in top end RPM compared to a DA60/GP61 it more than makes up for in smoothness and transitional power. Not as on/off... http://youtu.be/npwwifQlet4- SupaTim

Awesome! Knew you would love it, your first results are way better than mine! I need some of that Texas air to fly in as this Northwest stuff is sand bagging my RPM's...- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
Yeah... That was my feedback to DLE when I tested the sample out. Would be waaaaaaay easier for anyone with a 50/55 to just do a bolt on upgrade, but what do I know?!- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
Nope, no reason to. Bolted mine on and fueled her up. Drew fuel with just the little compression "bumps" so knew the reed block was fine. As for the ring, compression was strong but smooth so no red flags to pull off the jug. A lot of guys feel they NEED a Bowman ring but I fly enough that...- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
Still loving mine more and more every flight! It's about time for it's first tune up since our weather has warmed up about 25 degrees compared to when I first bolted her on. If it helps here's a movie I put together from my flights last week. I guess the proof is in the pudding (or video...)...- SupaTim

3dhs 92" edge 540 !!!
Don't worry, Tom has a stash of Falcon 24x9's for me based on flight test results on the DLE61. 10 pitch props on this size are for the go fast / straight line guys. 8 and 9 are for punch and pull, and that's where I live!!- SupaTim

3dhs 92" edge 540 !!!
My bad, I meant you Gary. I know Kelly has all the coolest nicest stuff in his! I've got a GP61 coming for me to do some testing of my own as they have been asking Tom to be a dealer for some time now. Will be nice to get first hand side by side testing on these engines as the interweb is often...- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
I started with a 23x9 Falcon and the engine was SCREAMING! When I went to the 24x9 was only turning about 6200, but seriously picking up RPM every flight and have yet to touch the needles again since getting it dialed in before maiden...- SupaTim

Hot off the truck! DLE-61's are here!!!
Well 2 months and 38 12 minute flights later, I've had nothing but great luck with this engine! The plane has lost 2 sets of wheel pants, one wing tip, and a tail wheel, but the engine is still rockin and rollin!! I'm now turning between 64-6500 rpm on the ground with a Falcon carbon fiber 24x9...- SupaTim
