Default RE: Screamin Demon .65, flights 3&4

It's a Jett .90 carb, pretty big hole. Having the throttle reduces the stress level a lot. I couldn't see myself venturing into .65 powered RC speed models without being able to rein it in when needed. I am sure the time will come that I run a venturi and pressure. I want to work up to it. Besides, I don't think it is suffering too badly for top end, and if I can make the magic 200 mark with a carbureted engine that's alright. The engine is stupid easy to handle, I guess there's a reason Jett's sport engines throttle the way they do and still run like a bear which is why I had Dubb Jett machine a carb to fit.

I wonder how much top end I am losing with the carb?
