I,ve got a fox 3.2 and got about 30 great flights on it with no problems. BUT... the last 3 flights have resulted in deadsticks whenever i do a roll. As soon as i get inverted, it dies. any sugestions? I,ve checked the tank and lines for leaks and found none. checked clunks and filter, all clear. What else can it be? The engine runs great on the ground, and transitions great. Got me scratching my head. Please help.

Thanks in advance: Lee

Replace the lines with Aerotrend Easyflex and use a felt clunk. Most likely, it's sucking air in the gas line some place.

Thank for the feedback, but i'm already using both Aerotrend easy-flex that i got from B&B, and felt clunk too. Any other suggestions?

Pull the cowl and fire it up on the ground. Try wiggling the Hall sensor and connectors to see if it stutters or quits. Maybe try a new ignition switch.

Richen it a little it may be to lean and the change in cowl pressure when inverted may lean it enough to die.

I had a similar problem with any inverted or negative G moves.

Finally a friend spotted a bare spot that had been worn on my kill switch wire. It was "floating" up and shorting out on the cylinder head.

Check the wiring & connectors carefully for things that would change position due to gravity/inertia.
