Default RE: RAM 750 Operators Help!

Update!

I had a successful start this evening. It was raining all day yesterday so I didn't get to go at it until today. So the latest info is:

Adjusted start pump pulse width down to 38 (from 56 [X(]) - very few flames and a pretty smooth start. I first tried 32 & 34 but I got low RPM. 38 seems to work well. This is all from the start box so I don't have any new info about the rx link.

As for the idle, there is still popping - doesn't seem as bad as I described first but it is definately occuring along with a corresponding small flame at the typical hot spot (4-5 o'clock) I didn't try up-ing the idle rpm as I am afraid of a gain in residual thrust. But maybe it is something I should consider. Anyone else running their 750 idle above 33k?

Some people have said not to worry about the popping, others have said it shouldn't do that and to send it back to modellbau or even to Carlos so I am not really sure what to do. I am a little concerned of installing it in an enclosed installation or one with horiz stabs nearby as it is now.

I could stick it on the Roo but that is about all I would be comfortable putting it on right now!

Steve and Dawn, I might give you a call and see if I can bring this bad boy over.

P.S. Where do you get an extension for the RPM lead? I definately don't have enough slack to get to the ECU.
