That could be a lean high speed,

How much space is there between the slide and the inside of the carb? should be about the width of a credit card or so.

If thats set right, its gotta be your tune,

You could have used the low speed needle at one point to compensate for an incorrect idle? or vice versa.

Id check the gap,

Then reset my needles and tune the high speed then the low speed.

Status: offline 		Yea the gap looks good. Check the low speed needle to and it didnt change anything. Wouldnt an air leak make it idle high ?

Yes, give the low end a few hours, it will bring the idel down. Dont run it to lean on the low end, bad things happen to a nitro engine when the low ends to lean.
