Ok thanks for the info Rik. It's getting closer and closer for me being able to get one of these motor's , and i want to make sure that i have done everything i could do , to keep it running cool and clean. if i remember right , you told me to set the motor up with the right needle adjustments and just go fly it. And actually break the motor in on actuall fly time. i'm scared *****less that i might have to deadstick on me when i'm close to the ground. that has got to be my biggest fear with this size plane. i think i will take er' up , fly it around real gentle for the first few gallons , and steadily break it in on about 5 gallons , with keeping the plane kind of high in the air in case of a dead stick landing. i am hoping for christmas i'll be able to buy my motor for myself , and then spend some serious time getting the baffling correct. anyways....look forward to seeing your #'s on what the engine is running , and an overall outlook on the way the motor runs for you. Thanks buddy!
