Default RE: 100 degree heat and lean engines

I have been flying in 110 you WIMPS

Lol, just kiden.

My engines aren't affected much by the heat. I tune them to peak RPM and back of a few hundred. I ALWAYS point the nose up to make sure it isn't leaning out in hover/uplines

Can you be a little more specific on how the engine quit. Do it warble or bog down before it died on you?


Edit:

The Low speed is tunned just like the HS needle. Clockwise leans it, counterclock richens it.
