Default Help, first glow motor

Electric starter solved the problem. The 1/2 a starter spins that thing way faster than I could ever dream of flipping. And it could take a while before she would crank even at that. This may be due to the fact I'm still using 10% fuel, but I was still able to run three 1oz tanks of gas through it today. Norvel suggested using a lower nitro content when breaking in a motor, so that's why I bought the 10%. The motor still isn't running like it should but I guess that will come with pratice. I really need to make it out to a field with other glow flyers.

Thanks again everyone for the help
Philip
