Need help breaking in an O.S. engine
Hey, I've been involved in R/C on and off for a while now and am pretty fluent in the electrics branch of our hobby. However, I'm a newby when it comes to nitro. I recently bought an RC10 GT Factory Team for a non pullstart engine. On the advice of people online, I picked up the O.S. .12 CV-R w/10ER Rotary Carb. I finished building the kit a couple nights ago and am now in the process of breaking in the engine. This is where my troubles begin.
I bought a good starter box, a decent glow plug ignitor, and the fuel recommened to me by my hobby shop guy. I start the engine up, with the recommended factory settings for the first tank, and it goes fine for a minute or two and then stalls. I start up again. Same thing. It seems to stall all the time. Is this normal? It's frustrating because the starter box batteries will die or my ignitor will die and then I have to wait awhile to try again. I'm still on the first tank for crying out loud! Help a noob. Please.
