Default RE: U Can Do 3D

[X(]mixmaster sorry to hear about your loss hope you get a #4 up and runing. If it makes you feel any better i got to maden my do witch is #1 (well see how long that last) the weather hasnt been very good lately but sunday was nearly a perfect day at least for feb.
it really is an awsome flying plane started it up engine was runing perfect it didnt really want to set still though (i just took it as it ment it was ready to go) gave it half throttle and off she went a few clicks of up trim and one click of right ailron and she was hands off landing was perfect checked it out and off we went again then about 15min later another landing better than the perfect first one!![8D] only had about a foot role out mabe less fueled up and took her up again 7-10min mabe then i got to dead stick it for the first time it was unevent full nice down wind landing i was only up about 30 feet or so i just turned around and landed 25 yards past me prior to that it was showing no signs of any problems was runing perfect
started it back up it ran but it was like it wasnt geting any fuel with out chokeing it so i pulled the line off the carb and suck fuel through it with the pump thinking that mabe it was trash or something i am runing a inline filter before the cline. but that didnt seem to help same thing only way i could keep it runing was if i choke it then it would catch up and run for a sec would sound good and strong then start to dye rechoke it for a sec and it would pick up and run then fall out again like it wasnt able to get enough fuel
tank had good presure no airbubles in any lines check the needle vaule for trash too that as far as i got with it havent looked and again yet at the house but ill probally start by geting another tank and rubber band it to the side or something at the right hight and close enough to the engine so i can bypass the cline and stuff to see it thats where the problem is at it was an awsome three flights though this is going to be a really fun plane cant wait to go again
