Tuning/plug choice advice saito 91
Hello, I won an Ebay auction and in it among a lot of other stuff was a Balsa USA Bristol M1 monoplane. equipped with a Saito 91 four stroke. The engine looks to be well used so lets consider break in complete. I have fired the engine and had the needle at safe rich setting (filled the neighborhood street with smoke) just to lube and clean the thing out a bit. Now I have put a new glow plug in it and set forth to tuning. Have I mentioned I have never owned a four stoke before? Well I can't get the thing to idle low enough that it does not pull forward on me in the grass without it wanting to stall. It was still to slow to steer with the wire tail dragger set up (no rear wheel) so when I blipped the throttle to turn it darn near took off in front of my house. To much prop? (14X6) I also noticed it was a lot smoother running while the Glow igniter was still attached (Glow plug to cold?/any recommendations as I do not even know what plugs came with this thing.) Appreciate any help you pros can give me.

What goes up must come down... Wish it was when I was ready for it though.
