Status: offline 		I was tuning my YS 63 last night with a 13-4W APC and was gettting about 10,300 consistently. At this setting there was good smoke, transition, and idle. A tachometer is a must when tuning this engine, as small amounts of adjusting can make a big change in performance.

Does anyone else have tach readings on their YS 63 FZ?

I have another question. What size spinner are you using and who makes it? Looks pretty scale.

Status: offline 		I'm getting 11,900rpm with a 13-4w apc on byrons 30% w/24% oil. Peak is right around 12,200. That is with only 1 gallon of fuel thru it so far. I have this engine on a OMP katana and has foamy like power. it is unbelievable. I'm trying to locate some ys20/20 fuel in my area but i've had no luck. What nitro content are you running? That sounds like your not using very much nitro.

Status: offline 		I'm using wildcat 20/20, type F plug, APC 13-4W..........about 700ft above sea level. I'm going to test some tonight witht a new glow plug. Mine is not the new S engine. But it was very unlimitied when new. It may need a new ring.

BUt.......

Your canopy is painted very straight. How did you do it? Did you paint the inside of the canopy like the instructions say?

Thanks again,

Terry
