| Brief Description: |
Idle circuit adjustments and taxi test |
|
|
Noted that the engine did not want to idle with the out of the box setup (servo was never run with the engine) Proceeded with set of idle circuit tests: lean the engine with the red knob and lower RPM; leaner was better. Iterated the adjustment of the idle arm on the servo and noted performance (6 clicks, 9 clicks, 11 clicks leander than original setup). Idle improved and the engine seems to give the 50 rpm rise when moved to ICO. Still need to adjust the idle RPM; might be a bit low. (500 ish) Was able to taxi the aircraft and condition the brakes. Taxi to the fuel island and around the airport. I was the only one moving on the field. |
