Evolution 46
Has anyone had any trouble with the carb on this engine - Evolution .46.
The throttle will not go closed. Stops at 1/3 open. I started the engine normally. Flew for 6 to 8 minutes and tried to throttle down to land and it would not go to idle. I probably ruined the servo trying to idle the engine.
I unhooked the servo and no matter what I do the throttle will not close past 1/3 open. It is jammed.
Just wondering if this is a known problem.
I have this engine on my ultra stick and just love the combination.
I plan to call Horizon early next week.
Any help would be appreciated.

Ditto with WCB. I loosened the stop screw, closed the barrel, then retighten. Had to do it a few times, but finally got it to close. They're sometimes a PITA.
