Recalcitrant 160
Hi Guys
Instead of buying a 115, ie a motor I understand.... I went maaaaaaaD last weekend and bought a Capiche 140 with a DZ160
up front. It is a biatch to start. The guy I bought it from said 'spin it up with starter with W O T to get fuel pumped up'.
I did this, attached glow, nothing...for a l..o......n...................g time. Finally I blew into the breather pipe tried
again and she fired first time. She ran beautifully then I returned home after a few flights.
Today I had another go at playing hookey from work and it just wouldn't go. I was blowing in breather, opening throttle,
closing throttle, pulling pipes off here, there,everywhere to make sure there were no blockages and almost extinguished
the 1800mah lipo in my Align Starter. Just as I was about to de rig and go home it popped, then started.
Almost frustratingly it then ran perfectly through 5 flights before I went home.
Any of you genuis' got any thoughts or ideas?
Best
John
