The needles are set very rich from the factory! Im rite around 5/8 on the low and 1-1/2 on the high.. it really makes awesome power after break in.. i think i ran 4 32oz tanks before i started leaning it out but i have it pretty close to the best its gonna get... im very impressed with this engine so far.. im swingin a wood 29x9 for 3D type flying and it has vertical like nobodys bizzness on my 107” Pilot Yak and plenty of pullout on my heavy airframe.. good luck with yours it looks like a good combo.. are you gonna tow or just scale/sport flying.

I think you have to download it to YouTube first and then post it here.

Sounds pretty good.. where did the needles end up for you? Probably a little different than mine with cans.
