Hi,

You have 2 screws on this carb. :
- low speed inside the throttle lever (left side) - his action 0 -> 60~70% throttle opening
- High speed (big one - right side) - 70 -> 100% throttle opening.

With 5% of nitro, I have 3 turns 3/4 on low speed screw / 2 turns on High speed.

That's means, when you are hovering, the mixure is made mainly by the low speed screw.

Sorry for my bad english...

Check your blade pitch and head speed to make sure you are not loading it up too much.

this is a great thread. I just picked up a raptor 30 v2 w/tt 39 pro (used) and I can't get it started. I don't Know what glow plug is in it. I removed and tested it. Looks like it's working good. I am going to pick up a new one at my LHS. any tips on glow type and needle settings would be great. Thanks

Ghostship do yourself, your wallet and possibly your shins a favor, if you havent' yet done so, find someone that flys and can look that thing over and go over your setup. You can ask HeliMedic, he drove almost 2 hours to our club and in the first few minutes we found problems and finally found one that could have resulted in the blades coming off in flight.
