Default RE: DL-50 engine

Okay guys, got the DL out again today. I got another 5 flights on it. Man, it is really running better. I richened the HS about 1/8 of a turn and leaned the LS a hair. I have around 1-1/2 gallon through it now. The transition is REALLY smoothing out but still a little rough. It has also stoped missing like it used to. It is just really getting impressive. I can't wait to get 4-5 gallons through it. From the way things are going, it looks like it is going to become a really smooth engine. I don't know what the RPM is but the plane is hovering at 1/4 stick. It really pops out when i want it to also. This is with a 22-8 also. I can't really go above 22 inches on this plane. Maybe a 22-10 after more run time will be the ticket?

Great engine!
