thank you, bill
I am very sorry, I would very much like to tell you about that modification, but the Heli forum it was posted on (RunRyder) has been shut down and I could not find the information. I looked on Heli Freaks and RCG for you and still I could not find that info..
the problem was with the "Original" 40E Mixture Control Valve inside the Carb.
if you ask on Heli Freaks about the Run Ryder post about "Like Magic for the OS 50" may-be you will get replies

see my link below, it tell that the newer and larger 60L Carb has an updated Mixture Control Valve, I have to wonder if this 60L Mixture Control Valve will fix the problem with the 40E Carb ??? but never the less, we have to understand that he 40E was a Heli Carb, so we also have to ask if the stock 40E Heli Carb will run the same or better on a plane with a prop instead of a Heli with a gear reduction ????

you may have to copy and past the link ??

good luck
