Hi there,

The other day I had a flame out with my DA 50. The engine still breaks in. It has about 3 litres of super unleaded fuel mixed with Bel Ray 2 stroke non-synthetic fuel. The engine seems to work ok on the ground, the idle up has been adjusted at about 2000 rpm, after the transition from high rpm to idle, rpm drops at about 1700-1800 rpm and then goes up to 2000. Is that an indication of rich or lean Low needle setting? I believe it is rich, but what is your opinion really?

The flame out occured during an inverted harrier at about 1/4 throttle but I am not sure whether is related to the previous fact. During high speed inverted passes there was no problem, but at 1/4 the engine died for some reason. Can someone provide any possible explanations?

Thanks in advance,

Nikos
