Your comparing the GP 176 evo to a DLE 170. I would expect the GP to spank it. Your also using a very light plane.
I had the 176 evo in my 50%, 50 lb Ultimate. On RE 3 ' s.
Also the ZDZ 180. Same plane, same pipes. The GP would rev about 200 shy of the ZDZ once unloaded in the air with the same prop. But low end and midrange........I'm sorry, The GP couldn't keep up.
When you hit the throttle on the ZDZ. It went from zero to BRAP instantly. The GP 176 was slow to wind up. Pulling from a hover..... The ZDZ would start ripping the prop once the plane started moving. The GP never ripped the prop pulling from a hover.
The engine that gave the zdz180 a run in my big ultimate was the DLE222. It could keep up power wise. Midrange and torque. Not to mention serious prop rippage. But the extra 6 pounds over the ZDZ 180 was very noticeable in how the plane flew.
