Default Brillelli Break-in Procedure?

Got my B46 Friday and have worked hard over the weekend to get it mounted in my GP Yak. The documentation that came with it didn't mention anything at all about how to break it in other than to use a 40:1 Penzoil mixure. Never had a gas motor before so:

What's the right thing to do?

Just exactly what it said. Mix it at 40-1 and go fly. Helps quite a bit if you tune it for your location as well. There's no such thing as a "factory setting" Scott will verfiy that. Send him an e-mail, he'll answer you. Guaranteed.

Read the tuning instructions twice - put it on the plane - read the tuning instructions again for good measure and then tune it. Fly it with 40:1 for 3 a few gallons and then if you like you can switch to 50:1.

It would help if when you go the your flying field you ask someone experienced with gassers to give your model a going over to ensure that you got it right the first time around, you being a newbie to gas.
