DLE-40 40cc Twin Gas with Electronic Ignition and Muffler DLEG0040
Smooth operation — lasting value
Finding an engine with enough power for your model is easy. Finding an engine that offers you more than the DLE-40 Twin? That's next to impossible.

DLE offers the ease and efficiency of electronic ignition, the smooth operation and long life of an opposed twin and the incredible bang-for-the-buck that all DLE engines offer. Features that are extras on other engines are standard equipment on DLE engines. They run from high-dollar items such as electronic ignition and muffler(s) down to conveniences like mounts, spark plugs and connectors.

Performance, plus – that's what you can expect from all DLE Engines.

Features:
    Light, efficient design for a high power-to-weight ratio
    Lightweight piston for fast acceleration, excellent compression and low vibration
    CNC-machined parts for high performance and long life
    Sealed crankshaft bearings
    Optimized pumper carb
    Updated mufflers for sound reduction, excellent aeration and power
    Phenolic insert to insulate carb from crankcase heat
    Composite backplate mount
    Opposing cylinders help dampen vibration that can prematurely "age" engines and airframes and
    reduce engine life.
