OK,
i have a question, i was out with my 30 today and was wondering, i was working on retuning my engine, i have a hatori pipe on it now and was wanting to know how much head speed should i be running in IDLE1 for basic flight maneuvers like stall turns and such. i did put a tach on it and it was turning about 1930 rpm to me that seems a little high. what do y'all think should i bring it down to around 1800 to 1850 or 1750 and the engine was running about 120 or so maybe 135, on 30% cool power. the 6sec rule also applies meaning that the finger on the butt plate and not burning the fire out of yourself. so the engine isn't running lean :D


thanks

1850 is more appropriate, 1930 is a good speed for idleup2 and an S curve on pitch.
