DLE-55 Gas Engine
There are two things you can count on in giant scale. The fi rst is that you can always use a little more
power. And the second is that there’s a DLE engine to deliver it.
The DLE-55 generates 2.2-4.4 more pounds of static thrust than the original DLE-50 and includes
a Walbro
®
pumper carb to make the most of it. It makes dependability, control and power affordable.
ROBERT ELECTRIC RETRACT SYSTEM
Robert has a new Electric Retract System that scale
enthusiasts will love. The electric system allows for full
control of the speed of the landing gear movement and
allows the gear to go up and down at the same speed as
well as staggering the deployment of the landing gear.
This system has the identical footprint to the pneumatic
gear so they are interchangeable with the pneumatic
system. If you choose to use these in your Top Flite
Giant Corsair simply install them using the procedure
outlined in this manual, ignoring the instructions about
the air lines, control valve, etc and use the instructions
with the landing gear.
