Sorry, I use my tach and ear to set my idle at the flying and landing rpm for my high/low/kill switch, seems to work pretty well. As stated, I didn't come up with this, I was told about it last week and tried it today, I was asked to post up and let someone know how it worked out. Very well thank you and just too easy. Next plane I use A pumper on I will give it A try and see how it works out. May be A while, next couple of planes in the works are gassers.
Gray Beard,
I read the same thread (glow driver) that you are referring to, and that was me who asked for the update on how the glow driver idea worked for you. Thank you for posting your results. I am going to try this out next time I fire up my son's Saito 82.
Just one question. When you remove the glow driver and the idle goes down a little, do you kill the engine to make the low end adjustment, and then restart the engine again each time?
I am just a little gun shy around those very fast moving props, and want to keep all my fingers intact.[X(]
