Default Gasser question

Secret Squirl,

Just read back a few posts you will see that Bill advised me to FIRST increase the pitch on the topend of the curve, whitch I did, and adjusted the rest of the curve while I was at it. Since this caused the motor to loose speed I then went to the second recomendation. This was to take the High speed needle to 1 turn and the low speed to 1-1/4 turns. this helped a lot. The rotor speed still seems to decay alttle at the top end pitch, but it still pulls along nicely. It does not compare to my Sport 60 yet, but I really like the way the heaver gasser flies. I am noticing imporvements each time I fly this thing, and it really is a nice smooth machine. I am still contemplating getting rid of my Spot 60 and finding another Z230.

Bill,

Thanks again, I will keep flying it like it is for awhile. I did some adjustments on the throttle ATV's tonight and was able to get them to 75/76. thethrottle difinately get there before the pitch now. I will be tring this tonight. One thing though, since I made the cahnge to the low at 1-1/4 I did get more vibration at idle than before, should I richen the low end a little to get rid of this?
I have been taking it easy so far, no more than 10 minutes per flight with a good cool down in between, and nothing more than a mild stall turn so far, with variations in pitch along the way(some full pitch and some 3/4 pitch flying)

Thanks again guys, Man is this fun or what!!!
