So far so good this engine is very easy to start. Its new so its dry and with a little priming and the choke set it fired right up the first time.
I had it idle for 15min at the factory carb setting with no need to adjust. The digitach was at 1450-1650 rpm and the temps were cool.
Fuel mix is at 30:1 with Klotz oil. Prop is a Zinger 22x8. Mounted to a TF GS Corsair. 2S 3200mah LiPo pack.
It is loud though so running it out in the yard is not the best option so I cut it shorter than Id like. It sounds great, I cant wait to get to fly it.
More info to come, please share your experiences with this engine.
In real cold weather you can cut the old stretchy part off a old sock and place it around the cyl. Keeps temps more even for break-in. Looks like a big lake near you??? Take care Capt,n
