DA 100 sags in inverted flight. Any idea?
Greetings
My DA 100 is running like a champ but when I fly inverted it sags sometimes. Fuel lines, clunk everything is allright. Needle settings are as reccomended by DA. I am doing the break in at 32/1 lawn boy oil.
Any idea?
Thanks
Serge

RE: DA 100 sags in inverted flight. Any idea?
The advised needle settings are just a starting point. After the running in is completed, (sometimes sooner) the needles have to be adjust for best engine performance throughout the flight envellope of the plane the engine is mounted on. There are articles on Walbro carb tuning ad infinitum, so I will not go into that here.
