Hey Adam
It is Adam Right?

Thanks a bunch
I'm printing this out as I type.
I will take it with me the next time I get to fire her up.
Its suppose to storm tomorrow
At least I hope it does
we really need the rain

Anyhow
I might have found one little problem to add to the mix while I was flying yesterday.
I have been havin trouble getting the muffler to stay on.
This muffler (brand unknown, but not stock) has a hole in the top and the bottom. I'm guessing this is so you can put the pressure line on either side depending on which side of the heli the muffler is mounted on.
When I got this heli (used) it was not plugged so I plugged it.
Well the screw fell out. So i'm guessing thats when it started going lean on me.
When I first started I had the throttle Linear from 0 to 100
It ran real good there , but the head speed seemed quite high.
But it didn't flutter the blades.
I started lowering the throttle curve and things just weren't the same after that.

I haven't been using the OS #8 plugs
I have been using some Thunderbolt R/C Long Glow Plugs with the idle bar. it's what I use in my 1/8 scale RC buggy
I will do like you wrote and start over again.
Who woulda thunk these helis would be so much work.
But they are fun.
Thanks again
Tom
