Default RE: Jetcat kerosene conversion start problem, please help!!!

Hi Vincent, I have just increased by two clicks, tried a start (failed) and repeated this all the way to .450 if anything it is getting worse, as usual it ignites straight away, then when it switches from ignition to kero full, there is a whining noise starting high pitch and gets lower in tone, electric starter motor stops and low rpm displays on GSU, just tried this with another freshly charged 5000mah pack. Very frustrating as I don't really want to remove the turbine from my lightning to convert it back to gas as it will be a pain in the a@@ if I have a glow plug fail as this is not the most straight forward model to be taking your engine in and out of for a plug change!

Arrrrgh [:@]



Anyone wanna buy an ultra lightning........... (the engine is very reliable!!!! ) only kidding......
