Oh how I hate those types, always fiddling with their engines but never able to get it right, but always coming over to tell you that yours which is running perfect has a slight miss ..... saying ''Listen just there, can't you hear it'', just burns my balls [:@]

Our club's (glow)eng wizard would tune their glows for them, then they'd fly & decide to tune again themselves,
resulting in surging & flameouts to no end. One guy who did so was a retiree that used to sell real estate, had ZERO
eng knowledge, and proceeded to seize up a good OS .65ax in about 15 flights!

Another tuned his glow so much one morning, he forgot to re-fuel. Took of and crashed from a dead stick on take off.

I've created a set of scoring cards just for them, which a couple of us hold up like in the Olympics.
