Default RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hey all,
I have a Saito 125, broke in well, noticing low RPM's. I put the tach on it and all I am getting is 6800 A far cry from 9 or more. I am running a 16X6 APC, 15% Cool power and OS F plug. I had the 17X4 on it before and it worked great. I banged up the Edge 540 so I fixed the plane and changed the prop for a little more spped but I can't get any high RPMs at all. I tried a smaller prop (15X6 APC) and she still flew around like a fat pig! I am going to try to turn the HS idle to 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 as I read in a seperate blog to see if it will bring the RPMS to in the 8000 range at least! I checked the valves and reset to factory settings tonight, ANy help would be appreciated! By the way I am at sea level! Thanks

Chuck
