ORIGINAL: Cyclic Hardover
You wasted a whole gallon of fuel on break in? Why? I spend a couple tank fulls "properly" adjusting my engines and then fly it. Everything else is a waste of fuel and flight time. A person can run 5 gallons through and engine but if its not properly dialed in, whats the point of it. All that waste of time and fuel is not going to make it run any better.
Maybe it was worth it to be confident that the engine was broken in properly and running reliably....
Maybe it's been a long winter and it was fun to just get outdoors and run an engine....
Good flying,
