RE: RCV 91CD full throttle problem

In my case, at peak rpm, there is still about 2mm to go before the barrel is fully opened.

Now I set the engine servo to travel to this limit, otherwise during take-off and if I fully opened...

RE: Engine tuning question

I am using an OS F glow plug and Omega 15% fuel.

Maybe I should try to clean the bearing with WD-40 and see if this will loosen it up.

RE: Engine tuning question

Hi Dar,

Sorry, the numbers should be:

RE: Engine tuning question

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I will try them all today and report back. First, I'll have to buy another bottle of fuel.
These 4-stroke engines are thirsty with all running in.

Cheers.

RE: Engine tuning question

One more thing, I attached a 1.5 ft rubber hose to the muffler exhaust to deflect the oil and smoke.
Will this effect the engine tuning?

RE: How to keep weight down. Epoxy or ca

I use epoxy for places where some time is needed for alignment and adjustment. Like stab, tail fin and joining the two wing halfs.

RE: Royal-FW190A8

Thanks for the reply. I am already on 10% fuel. At idle I can see the fuel droplets coming out of the tune pipe with the smoke. At full throttle, there is smoke so it cannot be lean, but on throttle...
