DLE170M Paramotor Engine / Paragliding Engine 17.5HP 7500RPM Electric Start

A: The DLE170M is a 170cm³ gasoline engine platform positioned for paramotor, paragliding and professional propulsion applications. It offers 17.5HP at 7500 RPM and electric-start product positioning.

A: The listed import price is CA$4,720 for the DLE170M Paramotor Engine Standard Package. Final pricing may vary if installation support, propeller matching, starter-battery planning, workshop support or prototype integration assistance is added.

A: The listed displacement is 170cm³.

A: The listed performance output is 17.5HP at 7500 RPM.

A: The listed idle speed is 1100 RPM. Stable idle depends on correct fuel mix, ignition setup, carburetor tuning, propeller selection and engine condition.

A: The listed thrust reference is 45kg at 100m altitude and 38kg at 1800m altitude. Actual thrust depends on propeller, air density, tuning, fuel mix, frame design and installation quality.

A: The listed applicable propeller specifications are 30×12 and 30×10. Final propeller selection should be performed by a qualified integrator according to load, RPM target, thrust requirement and safety margin.

A: A propeller should be treated as required separately unless specifically included in the final quotation. Confirm final package contents before order.

A: The listed bore and stroke are 52mm × 40mm.

A: The listed compression ratio is 9.5:1.

A: The listed lubrication ratio is 30:1. Fuel/oil mixing should follow engine manual guidance and proper break-in procedures.

A: The listed spark plug type is NGK CM6.

A: The listed ignition voltage range is 4.8V–12V. Battery and regulator selection should match ignition and starter-system requirements.

A: The listed engine weight is 6kg.

A: Yes, the product title includes electric start. Final starter motor, wiring, battery and switch configuration should be confirmed before purchase.

A: It is positioned as a paramotor / paragliding engine, but any human-carrying use requires qualified engineering review, structural integration, appropriate safety systems, operator training, certification checks and local aviation compliance.

A: No. This is a high-power engine and is not a toy. It is best suited for trained operators, professional workshops and experienced propulsion integrators.

A: Yes, it may be evaluated for fixed-wing UAV or aircraft prototype projects if the airframe, vibration isolation, fuel system, propeller, cooling, ignition, electric start and safety procedures are professionally engineered.

A: Before every operation, inspect the engine assembly, propeller, frame or airframe, screws, nuts, fuel lines, ignition wiring, starter wiring and throttle linkage. Loose or damaged components must be corrected before starting.

A: The product page warns that the engine must run with shock absorber installed during break-in. Without suitable vibration damping, the engine can be seriously damaged by vibration.

A: Loctite 242 or 243 is strongly recommended on screws where appropriate. Always follow the engine manual, mounting instructions and hardware guidance.

A: Operators and bystanders should always stand clear of and behind the propeller. Never stand in front of or to the sides of the propeller while starting or running the engine.

A: Anyone near the engine should wear protective eyewear. Loose clothing should not be worn near the engine or propeller.

A: Typical required items include suitable propeller, fuel tank, fuel tubing, fuel filter, ignition/starter battery, switch harness, throttle linkage, engine mount, shock absorption, starter controls, field tools and correct gasoline/oil mix.

A: Maintenance should include checking propeller bolts, engine mounting bolts, frame hardware, spark plug, ignition wiring, starter wiring, fuel lines, fuel filter, throttle linkage, carburetor tuning and general engine cleanliness.

A: Warranty support generally covers manufacturing defects under approved use and normal operating conditions. Damage from incorrect fuel mix, poor tuning, overheating, propeller strike, crash impact, vibration damage, improper frame installation, dirt ingestion, water exposure or unauthorized modification may not be covered.
