Default Help: G26 Throttle/Carb problem

Hi,

This is my first experience with a gasser. I have a G26 in a 1/4 scale Sopwith Pup and I fired it up for the first time today.

I was never able to start it by flipping it by hand although almost every time, it did fire. It started with a starter but died easily. I had to start it at about 1/4 throttle but it ran pretty fast. (I did not have a tach with me at the time.) Throttling down just made it die. When I throttled up, the rpm would increase until about 3/4 throttle and then it would start to mush at bit. The rpm would roll off but it kept running. Throttling back down would have to be done slowly or it would die.

The idle and high mixture screws are per the factory settings but since I am new at this, I don't know how to adjust them.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
