Thanks Capt Ron. The Radial engine sound is what it's all about for me, on this one, really, although I got carried away with a total repaint in the process. Probably could saved a couple of pounds without the repaint. I've been to Pueblo West in 2003 and that's a nice drive. I probably won't travel for a Labor Day RC weekend though. I made that drive in 2003 in an almost brand new Corvette, which was a blast every mile, but my 2004 Chevy PU isn't quite that much fun. Ha

Kwik, do you mean the servo isn't holding position, or does the engine just slow down? 6K rpm is pretty dang good anyway. I hope that Saito put a little lube on the internals before they shipped the FG-84 as I didn't pre-oil the deep internals. I did oil the rocker arms and ends of the valves before hand though.
