Oh I dont know Gordon. its that tough
First flight of today was on a new Kingcat. Locally built with a Booster 160. Wow it was fast! I have always been more of a Bobcat fan myself, but this Kingcat was hauling and tracked straight as an arrow to boot. I am only sad that I only managed 4 minutes before the booster decided to splutter, but not stop. I then found the throttle delay to be really really slow. ( Like 10 secs ) Strange as I have never experienced this before. ( Any ideas ) Still it carried on running and the Kc landed fine.
Ali check the fuel lines...maybe there's an air leak and cavitation is forming. It happened to me once and it the turbine just didn't quit on me but couldn't accelerate to full throttle.
