Mintor 1.70

I don't know what Nitro Wayne was running, but I saw him breaking it in yesterday at the field and the high end RPM's he's listing are right on the money. It was truly amazing!

Actually he's being a bit conservative on the low end because I saw it idling down around 1300 RPM. I though it was going to die but it kept purring right along, then when given the gas it would jump right up to full power without any sputter at all!

  Just a few notes on my initial test and break-in on this engine.  It has not been installed in my plane as of this writing but I cant wait.

  3M 1.70 stock header
  10 % Magnum fuel
  Bluebird c.f. 2-stroke pipe  24.25" center of head to 1st baffle.  Total length of exhaust center of head to end of pipe  31.5"

  Test day 98 degrees and about 35%+ humidity

  17x12N APC      high 8500rpm low 1600rpm
  17x13 std APC   high 8250rpm  low 1500rpm 

  This is after 5) 16oz tanks of breakin.  I broke it in just like the OS,  alternating rich to lean during first several tanks.
