Default RE: Brillelli/Extreme Flight COMBO!!!

Got a couple of flights in before my canopy blew off and ended my day. The first couple of tanks were very disappointing. Hover at full throttle with almost no vertical. As I got to my 4th tank the engine started to wake up a bit. Not to mention it was running pig rich and every flight the needles were getting leaned on. Hovering was now taking place at just over 1/2 throttle with ok pull out. I'm running a 3w 19x8 wood and I only tached it on the initial run at 6600rpm. I'm sure it is way over 7k now. I'm going to go ahead and order a 20x8 pt models prop and stick that on there as soon as i go thru this 1.5 gallons of lawnboy ashless mixed at 32:1. I'm running a 12oz tank and flying 10 minutes uses 6oz of fuel. Gonna be alot of flying to use up that 1.5 gallons.
