Above: installation of the DLE-20RA engine with Great Planes 60-120 adjustable engine mount (left) and
installation of the engine throttle and choke pushrods (right).
The engine ignition module must be installed immediately behind the firewall and the spark plug wire passed
through the firewall from the lower left side (viewed from the front) through the 30mm hole. It is recommended
to protect the ignition module with foam and secure it with double-sided tape or Velcro securely.
Very important: all fuel lines and engine cables must not, under any circumstances, have contact with parts
of the engine block that are very hot during and after operation. For this, we recommend fixing them to the
upright with nylon cable ties firmly and without the possibility of moving. Other engine mounts can be used,
since they are indicated for the engine used and are within the required mounting dimensions, such as anti-
vibration engine mounts to reduce the general vibration level of the engine reflected in the model aircraft, but
with a slight loss of power and maximum efficiency.
Above: installation of the ignition module behind the firewall on the side and flexible Dubro pushrods for
throttle and choke control (left) and engine positioned correctly on the correct alignment (right).
