nice to see some good customer service.&nbsp; DA is one of the best for
sure.&nbsp; Glad to hear you'll have a spare in the closet!&nbsp; Also, for you
modelers on a budget, I have a place for you to visit.&nbsp; There is a big
tent in the burlington coat factory parking lot that has a company named MTZ
tools.&nbsp; They sell a lot of tools there, but none of it is name brand
stuff,&nbsp; for a lot less then you could by at a regular store.&nbsp; Some of
it isnt exactly quality, but to be fair its still some good stuff.&nbsp; I was
in there and they have small clamps for 50 cents, larger ones for less then 3
bucks.&nbsp; And they have hobbie knife kits there as well, like some of the
stuff you would see from exacto, just much cheaper.&nbsp; If your in need to
replace some tools or other stuff give these guys a look.&nbsp; The money you
could save there is pretty high compaired to the same stuff with that

<p class=MsoNormal>Most of you have probably heard about (or seen the video) of
one of my DA-100 gas engines blowing a cylinder.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Well, I packed it in a box and took it to the post office;
put insurance on it and priority mailed it back to Desert Aircraft (and I
included a video of the incident).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>For reference, the motor wasn&#8217;t brand new.&nbsp; I
have had it on that plane for the last 2 to 3 seasons.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>It took them one day to look at it and make the necessary
repairs.&nbsp; I called them and asked about the status of the motor and to see
what I owed for the repairs.&nbsp; They said, no problem we are going to cover
it under warranty.&nbsp; So I pulled out my credit card and asked &#8220;what
about the shipping cost to return it to me?&#8221;. &nbsp;They said, &#8220;no
problem, we will cover that too and send it back to you today&#8221;. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Sure it ended up costing me the fuselage of a composite-arf
extra, but I don&#8217;t know of many (if any) other companies that would make
the repairs and cover the shipping all for free.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I am definitely one satisfied customer of Desert Aircraft
and will continue to put their motors on my gassers.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>(Hey Steve, looks like my motor cost less to repair than
your blown motor in your electric pattern plane after all!)<o:p></o:p></p>
