Default RE: St 90 break in today

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.
A gallon of fuel is much cheaper than a 90 size model. I've got 3 gallons through my 2300 and still won't put it on the plane I bought for it. Gotta be confident in the powerplant! They do run better the more they are run. Especially for the first three gallons.
