ok ok, i got it running today. at first i had some trouble with it. it would only start at full throttle, and even then it would die soon after glow starter was removed. so i whipped out the vmax7 manual and set it to factory specs. and it started after a shot of gas into the carb. it stayed running better(again only at full throttle) and longer. I then adjusted the needle valveand got it running pretty good(kinda) not reliable enought to fly. I also noticed that it shakes pretty bad when spooling up, im guessing it could be do to blade grips not the same. everything else is either new or like new. and when i say shake, i mean blades arent running at same height. im just gonna put 6 dots on both sides, cause one was a 4 dot. by then i had to get ready for work. and it ran out of gas so i put it away. i also noticed it having only 1 washer under the plug. i live in south florida oh about 100 miles north of miami. how many washers should i use? Will play with it tommorrow .
