Default RE: Robitronic Protos

No problem! After about an hour of tweaking, we got the steering ironed out. The steering servo arm is not centered at neutral though. I probably have to remove the arm and put it on the next position. Close enough for training for now.

The first startup after all that was a little troublesome, but we got it going. Tuned it to running just a little rich now, but plenty of speed and some smoke at all thottle levels. Running under 210 degrees F. peak. Cool.

Burned through an entire quart of fuel and totally wore out the front tires and it seems the brakes are done too. Lots of power drifting, no major crashing. Flipped her once, but she landed right and kept going. That was neat. After the 3rd tank we tried some full throttle runs. She screams good.

Lotta fun!
