Shown above is the DBG for the DLA 32cc gas engine. The centering tab on the back of the DBG is

inserted in the prop’s crankshaft hole and the engraved arrows, aligns with the prop’s axis. The

first hole is drilled, using the specified drill bit (see Prop-drill bits below) and then the

alignment/anchoring pin is inserted through the DBG and propeller to secure the DBG while the

remaining holes are drilled.

The GS R/C – DLA Drill Bit Guide is available through www.goldenskiesrc.com
