I have a DA50 and am having trouble getting it to run correct. Was tuning it and it seemed to be be getting to the point I wantede it, then it died and now it will fire on choke, then when choke off, it will just start and run out the prime and die. Any ideas?
This has happended a couple of time. The 1st time, I reset the needles to factory setting and started tuning again.

You are too lean on the low needle, an engine should not run on choke. Set the high needle as described by DA at max rpm and then work the low needle from idle till you get a good transition to full power with out engine hesitation. When you get good transiton with a reliable idle and throttle up then fly it. I found the high needle to be at about the factory setting and the low to be about 3/8 turn leaner than factory.
