Rob Clement-RC...

The Saitos do spew out a bit of fuel. But, the fact that you keep deadsticking and you are spewing a lot of fuel makes me believe you are way to rich on the bottom end (screw that goes through the throttle lever). The Saitos come with that screw super rich. I mean...I turned mine in about 3 turns after my 40 minute break in. They will acutally run pretty good very rich, but sometimes you get deadsticks and your economy is very poor. I keep turning mine in until I'm certain it's a little lean and then back it out. If you haven't turned yours in at least 3 turns I'm betting you're still way rich. After I get my leaned out the economy increases about 30-40% and the deadsticks go away. And...as a bonus the sloppyness is less also.





I can only support 6 planes so I have to get rid of 1 or 2. I've already gave away my Harrier to a club member and I'm not sure what other one I'll get rid of. I am certain it won't be a UCD. No way I'm getting rid of one of them. Maybe I'll have to get the gear to support 7!??!?!? Either that or the Showtime will have to go.



Thanks
Barry
Thanks Barry, I've got a "tips on tuning" type page and maybe I need to go back to basics and see if something isn't quite right with the tuning.
If you've got an extra U.Stick you need to find a home for I know someone looking for one. Namely me.
