Default Factory setting problem again for GRP .21 tuned

For my GRP .21 i messed up the needles before i could start it to break it in...
So i need the factory settings, but on this site<a href="http://www.horizonhobby.com/Articles/Article.aspx?ArticleID=1897">http://www.horizonhobby.com/Articles...ArticleID=1897
i</a>t says 0.045 from flush for the HSN and LSN and 0.030 in for the idle!
But is that millimeters ore centimeters or inches???\
Does anyone have the factory setting for the grp .21 tuned engine in turns ( for example 5 turns out instead of 0.045)
Because i have no idea what 0.045 is...

unless you know what it is measured in can you please tell me how many turns out for factory... and if it will be too rich?<br type="_moz" />

I think he is talking about inches but still is weird. Normally all engines' factory settings are: 3-2.5 turns anticlockwise from fully closed for the HSN. About the LSN, try to make it flush with the Needle body (i don't know how to explain this, sorry, here a picture:




About the Idle needle, try set it that way so you have a descent opening while seeing in the carb.

I hope help.

It will be in millimeters as most engines are made in either Europe or Asia. (Are there any made in the States?)
