Default First flight with BME 50

Try listening to your engine -a bit more carefully- if it EVER sounds like the rpm drops -especially on climbing- it is a fair bet it is too lean.
Also - if you have not yet learned to do so -- move the throttle stick to various positions as you fly - let the engine change temperatures .
ALL of these engines need a breakin period -.
Breakin needs the engine to change temperature (within normal heat range) as you fly.
