40 SIZE PATRIOT
Ok , here is a crude video of my patriot, my video man did the best he could, i will get a better video soon, the SJ 50 is still rich,, the low end needle was too lean, so i richen up some, and the high end is currently at 1600 rpm, i will lean the high end out some more but i did manage to get the video,. i am using the 9x8 apc,.enjoy.

RE: 40 SIZE PATRIOT
Do you mean 16,000 rpm's? My SJ-50 turned a 9x8 APC at 17.2K nice and rich....The best performance I had was the 9x9 APC though.

rpm is too low..... if need be, fly the thing with a 9x7 on it for a few flights ..... get the engine screaming. Look for 17,000 rpm and higher. Will get their easily and still be rich with the 9x7.
Don't try the 9x9 until you get about an hour of unloaded flight time on the engine.
