Hey, I have just bought a second hand helicopter (my first heli) I am new to this. I can not seem to start the engine, i am using a RC car glow start, which makes the glo plug glo well, and using a drill to TRY to start it. I am not sure why it will not start. Any help will be great,
Thanks a lot, Greg.

Reset your needle valves.

Main needle 1 1/2 turns open from close
Idle needle (inside throttle arm) 2 1/2 open from throttle closed

To get the fuel started, try putting your finger over the muffler exhaust hole to pressurize the tank. Obviously, do not do this if the muffler is hot!

Once fuel is in the motor, as long as you have a good glo, it should start.

Let us know if you have any more trouble.
