Delong 30 1946 literature scans


The 1946 Detroit Michigan USA made Delong " 30 " spark ignition engine was a well made unit which was setting control line speed and free flight records nationwide. Dick Korda flew his Powerhouse 56 with the Delong......

However, not all was perfect with these engines as John Pond recollected in the scanned article attached..... A scan of a photocopy of an original instruction and parts list is included as well.

I am preparing my Delong 30 for some test runs on spark ignition with gasoline ( lantern fuel this time ) and will add to this entry with pics and video then.

Enjoy,

Best regards,

jeff
