DZ flying time

[Tomanek, Wojtek]

Ed 

I have my restrictor installed as it came from the factory and get the same
RPMs (8,300-8,400) with the same prop on Magnum 20/20 - still plenty of  HP
with 1/3-1/2 throttle generally.  I get to fly little over 12 min on a 20 oz
tank with foam clunk with an ounce or two left.  Also, my needle is similar
to yours.

HTH,
Wojtek

I have not used the restictor on the carb.  I was kinda think'n using the 
ATV to partially close the carb would do that, at full throttle anyway.

I do still have the piece.  Are most people using them??
