Got a couple of flights in this afternoon, a little richer on the high speed needle and now I can pull to 45 at 3/4 throttle and go as high as I like with no losing power so thats looking better, might still be able to go a little richer yet. Had a bit of excitement when I accidentally hit the throttle kill switch at the top of a stall turn though! managed to get it back on the runway so all good. Next test is to try lengthening the pipe and hopefully smooth out the power delivery a little.
Hey Dave,
Seems like you are getting it sorted.
I did the same with my Valiant last week. Hit the kill swich by accident about 175 meters out and about half the box height. Luckily I was quick enough switching it on again and because I had about half throttle on, the YS 185cdi fired back up again.
