Default Breaking in the DA50R

Hey Guys,

I am new to gassers, and want to know the correct break in procedure. The da50 manual seems a little vague. How much fuel should I run through it on the ground before flying the airplane. Also, the manual calls for a slightly rich mixture. Is this very rich like a glow 2 stroke or is this more of back off 500 rpm or so? Also, there are many recommendations on oils. If you have a favorite for break in, let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
