My friend Raffy gave me a hand with the engine.


I use a ACEX (Swiwin) 80. I ran my engine yesterday for the first time since October. I did not get a successful start on the first attempt. I went through the “learn RC” setup as I did the first time last year. After that the engine started right up. Performed test taxi and brake test operations.
