Well i got the motor broke in finally after it warmed up to about 45 last week. I know still a little cold but a nice sock worked good. I had a lot of problems getting it tuned just right. Mainly i think from the fuel i was using. the LHS said that this fuel needs to be leaned out a bit more then most.

Well Today i got it back out again and decided to work on the tune. After i got it warmed off it was bogging real bad on take off and burning thru the fuel. After a bunch of adjustments i found my self lost. I decided to go back to factory setting and work from there. Two adjustment off factory and she was running perfect.

After the first two tanks it seemed to be a little rich especially test the pinch test. I was running out of light and tomorrow is suppose to be even better. I'm going to lean her out just a bit more and see how she performs.

I was quite amazed how hard this thing can take a hit and keep on going. It wasn't a big jump but it hit hard a few times for sure.

If we could only make cars as scale tough. Run a car into something at 200 mph and see what happens. That is only 20 MPH for a 1/10 scale (scale speed). I can laugh off a roll at 40 most of the time....400 in a car crash... wow! Glad to hear it is working out for you. Welcome back to the adiction!!
