Default 3w break in

I hear that the 3w's has alot of engine cuts during the break in period (approx 5 hrs.)

does anyone have any experience with that?
should I be in safe potential height for the first few hours?

why not break in the engine on solid ground using fans to cool it and get the air flowing around it?
(I know the prop load is not the same but it still beats loosing your plane...)

happy flying
