Glenn Stevenson Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 My DL is my second one after the wing bolt snapped (plastic). I use metal bolts now. Flies great with the 160 v twin Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael brigg Posted July 30, 2023 Author Share Posted July 30, 2023 wow impressive engine how does that compare to my engine ,my wing has plastic bolts i will change before flying thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Stevenson Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Its rather sporty with the 160, my first Dragon Lady had a laser 90 and was quite sedate, it was sad to see the wings come off and destroyed the plane. Very easy to fly though floats in to land nicely every time. Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
