Default getting a little closer

so i had some issues with my tsunami a while back...i got a new .18 sh carb...motors a .18 sh also...i got it started today with the hsn about 2.5 - 3 turns out....and the lsn flush with the collar, then out 1 more turn...it runs...and it now stays still at idle when the transmitter is set to 70/30 throttle instead of 50/50 but if i run full throttle for more than 5 secs it dies, got plenty of smoke.....so i thonk its running rich....but i dont really know....should i adjust the hsn or lsln?

My brother's SV Pro was doing that and I thought it was running rich as well. I leaned it out and the problem got worse so I tried richening it, that solved the problem.
