I'm trying to learn to hover on my Raptor 30 v2 with tt.39. One of my problems is that after about half a tank the engine refused to take in more gas. I could see through the tubing that gas went in and came right back from the engine. I disconnected the tubing and cracnked the engine, gas just wouldnt come out at all. I inspected the tank but couldnt find anything that may be clogging the line. WHAT COULD BE WRONG?

You are probably , overheating that engine ...... the fuel is vaporising as it enters the carb .......... put both your HS and LS needles at 3 1/2 turns out from 0. The LS needle can only be set with the throttle arm at 0.
Bye.

I did notice that the engine was overheating, but I was getting a lot of smoke from it. That means I was running it rich. The main needle was at 2 turns out and it would hardly lift off, but at 1 1/2 turns it lifts without a problem.
