Default Rap50v2 + TT50 Pro Carb Settings?

Yet another newbie post about confusion about getting the carb mixture set properly.

I am a beginner and have had 1 gallon through my heli (never above a hover).

Here's my setup:
- Raptor 50v2
- TT50 Pro engine
- Stock carb included with the Rap+Engine kit
- CP15%
- Around Sea Level
- Currently 3 turns out on high needle and 3 1/2 out on the idle screw.

Can someone with a similar setup tell me what their high and low needle settings are? I just can't get it right and I don't have the experience to figure this out myself.

The heli is hovering at half-stick. After warming up the engine, I throttle down, pinch the fuel line and the engine speeds up after 1 sec. and then quits on the 2nd second. I've tried richening up the low needle but then I just can't get the engine started.

I'd like to stay away from the needle mod if possible for now.

THANKS!!!!
