RE: G26 Problem - Help Please
RCIGN,
I put a piece of aluminum over the cover for the carb diaphragm and that seemed to help. I then leaned out the carb a little and that helped a lot also. There is still a little black oil slim on the bottom of the fuselage, so I'm thinking of leaning it out the low speed a little more. The high speed is as lean as it can go without losing rpm. The transition from idle to full speed is still ok. I had a dead stick this evening after coming out a a large loop. I had backed the throttle down to idle and it just quit. Any comments or suggestions?
This is my first extended experience with a gas engine. The G26 is in a Ultra Stick Lite and at full throttle it doesn't sound all that powerful like a glow does, but the plane will climb out of sight in a vertical climb. I like it!
