<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 13px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; ">My newest rc- an edge 540 with an evolution .46 engine- is having some trouble starting. i bought the plane used and when i try to start it, either one of two things happen.
- The plane runs for about 30 seconds on idle and then stutters and slows to a stop.
- When i try to rev up the engine, about half throttle, the engine stops OR i get to full throttle and the engine starts to stutter, and when i let down on the throttle, it stutters to a stop.
I havetriedto adjust the high speed and low speed needle valves, but the problem stillexistsin the (not so long) long run. When i finally thought i had fixed it, i gave the plane some cool down time. Then i came out to run it again (because i like the sweet sound of the engine) and the priorfailuresoccurredagain! Since the manual says nothing about this, i need some help. Thank You!
P.S. the fuel i am using is 15%.

Click to find the edge. The glow plug i use is the one that comes with the engine...in other words, it is the stock version. The fuel i am using is Omega Pink fuel(15%). As for the run time, i do not know, but the man i bought it from said he last ran it about 3 months ago. I hope that my questions can be answered soon; flying season is almost here!
