Bruce, I get that too. Im still kinda "new" 2 years, but maybe 20 visits to the field..life keeps happening, though lately ive been on a roll

but since alot of people dont know me, and see the trainer (i love to fly the nexstar, i love making it do things a trainer shouldnt do!!!) they come over and want to "help" me tune it...

Case in point...about a month ago I started back heavy...hadnt flown since about april. April is cool and dry, august is hot and wet. No after run oil (i forgot it, or i would have) and no touching my needles..get out the starter, my 12v batt. is dead...started with a stick, it took one try and it was purring.

The best spot on the needles isnt where you get the most rpm, its where it runs the best, and not for one flight or one day, but for long periods of time.
