Default Hard starts when cold, rich runs
Hey all,

I've had the chance to break in my RT-X27 with some fun runs. Although, whenever I first start it for the day, it takes probably about 10 minutes to get it going. I have to keep turning the engine over in 5 seconds bursts for a good amount of time. Also, when it finally does start it seems to run extremely rich. I see fuel pouring out of the exhaust, and acceleration is choppy and slow. However, after about 10 minutes of running, acceleration becomes much better and with smoothness and consistency.

Any particular things I should adjust to possibly fix this issue? I see videos all of the time where it takes only 1 or 2 pulls on the starter to get it going. Mine probably takes about 10-15.


Thanks!!!
