    This enables the full r.P.M. Range, from idling to full power, to be controlled by the throttle stick, and then allows the engine to be stopped, from the transmitter, by closing the throttle completely with the trim lever. Set up the throttle linkage as follows: with the transmitter throttle trim le...

Lf the engine smokes excessiveiy and throttle response is poor, the mixture is too rich ; in which case, land the model and turn the needle valve clockwise. Do not close the needie valve too much, keeping it a ...

    O readjustments should therefore be carried out as follows: lf the mid-range throttle response is not rapid and positive (indicating a rich mid-range mixture), turn the needle valve 2 or 3 clicks clockwise, or turn the mixture control screw 10-20 degrees ciockwise. Lf, on the other hand, the respons...
