Default RE: Small OS 46AX issue-need help

If your engine is running fine and you have a good idle and a good transiton from idle to full throttle, then you may have a problem else where. If your using a cable on the throttle it may be flexing or slipping or there could be something wrong with the servo as far as the gear inside. Its hard to tell without seeing the setup. Post a pic of the servo in the idle position and in the full throttle position.

I hope that everyone is having a great Thanksgiving weekend!

I am having a small issue with my OS 46AX. I hope that somebody might have some input.

My 46 AX runs well and starts well. I have put about 1 1/2 gallons of 15% nitro through it.

Tt idles well. full power at full throttle. The problem is from 1/2 to 3/4 throttle.
I hope I explain this right, please bear with me. It starts and idles. I slowly transition up to 1/4, then 1/2 throttle. No problem, rpms rise.
But from 1/2 throttle to 3/4 throttle, there is no increase in rpms. It's not bogging down or dying, i8t's like it is being held at the same throttle. Then, from 3/4 to full throttle, the rpms pick up to full power as they should.

It's flying great like this. I am just wondering if any of you would no what would cause this "dead zone" between 1/2 and 3/4 throttle. I looked at the throttle barrel, and it is opening consistantly from idle to full throttle.

Any ideas?
