Default RE: Fox 60 Eagle III Dead After Throwing Prop

BTW, I have had a broken in engine with low compression with a lean run. It may be that it just needs to run rich some more to set the ring. Even ringed OS engines doesn't break in after 15 minutes. All ringed engines should be broken in at a rich four stroke for several tanks. Expect to run at least a half gallon of fuel before flying maybe more. Over a gallon, maybe two before it developes full power.
