Small in Displacement, Big on Performance
Don't let the size fool you. The DA-70 is our smallest twin-cylinder offering, engineered with the same performance-driven DNA that has made Desert Aircraft the benchmark for pilots who demand more. Lightweight, exceptionally smooth, and packed with torque, it delivers crisp throttle response and effortless power throughout the entire RPM range. Designed for 18–24 lb aerobatic aircraft, sport models, and larger scale warbirds, the DA-70 offers the ideal combination of reliability, low vibration, and confidence-inspiring performance. It's the kind of engine you stop thinking about after takeoff—because it simply does its job, flight after flight.
