Default RE: Flair DR1 Manual

Went to test fly the DR1, but the engine would not idle.
it is an RCV 1.30 fs, whith only about 30 minutes running on it before it seized and rusted up inside. I only got it back from the manufacturer 4 days ago after extensive repairs which despite the engine having a 2 year warranty, suprisingly, everything that needed repalcement was not covered. One of the things I sent it back for was, it would not idle. And after a lot of money spent on it, it still does not idle.
I will try again next weekend with different fuels and plugs, but considering it was supposed to have been test run after repair, the low end needle was so far in , no fuel at all passed through it.
