Background
The DLE 20 ran fine in my Pulse 125 but it was always a little short on power. When an opportunity came to purchase this RCGF 32 from a fellow club member, I figured it'd be a better choice, and it is. The extra weight of the motor allowed me to remove all of the lead ballast in the Pulse so the weight and balance stayed the same, but the power - wow! High speed and unlimited vertical.
