Default Engine starting help

I just bought a new Kyosho V One S w/ GS15 engine. Put it altogether and ready to run.
Now my problem is, how do you start this w/ the recoil starter. I put a 15% Omega fuel, put the Glow igniter and pulled the Recoil starter but engine won't start. Started w/ main needle at 2 turns out as indicated by the manual for engine break-in. Advance the throttle trim at the point were fuel were being spit out the carb, still unable to start it up. Need help...Check the plug, it glow alright. Is there any technique to start it easy...

Yeah, you can try pre-heating the engine with a hair dryer. Take off the aircleaner until you get it started, as it will just fill up with fuel and kill the engine's air supply. Good luck man!
