Default H7 PCR Engine stalling when given gas???

Ok, now I'm having a problem w/my breakin of my engine. I did the heat cycle like the instructions stated (though from seaching the board seems it wasn't getting hot enough...I could touch the head 1min. after). After 3 tanks I tried to run it in short burst and did for about 2mins. Shut down so it could cool down and when I went to start it again it would start, idle very high with wheels spinning for about 10 sec. then idle down and steady until I hit the gas, it would instantly die. I would get it started again, it would idle and once I gave it gas again it would die. I even tried setting it back to the original breakin settings from the instructions and same thing kept happening so I eventually set it to the after breakin setting to see if it made any differance and it still wouldn't run when given gas.

Is there some setting not set correctly or something I'm just missing???[&o] Help, I've gotten really frustrated today (sunday) and spent over an hour on this. Time was short due to the Super Bowl today.

Thanks for any information.
