Webra 1.45 problemReally doesn't sound like the problem. The F helps with
that nice slow idle and keeps the flame on low idle downlines. Well maybe if
its after long idle downline. Maybe its getting a slug of fuel that is
quenching the heat??

  I was going to try a F plug today but I gave up too soon. Do you think
that would make the difference??

  Plug should be an OS F.

  How many turns out is your needle?

    I'm having a problem with my Webra 1.45 and I hope someone can help me
out. I have a new Hydeout (thanks to the guys that gave me the control throw
advice!)  with a new Webra 1.45. Below are the details on the motor setup:

    Prop: APC 17x2
    Fuel: Magnum #1
    Plug: OS #8
    Pipe: Greves
    Mount: Hyde type soft mount and nose ring
    Tank: Tetra 20oz, on CG of model
    I have about 2/3 of a gallon of fuel run through the motor, this Webra
uses the regular carb with the high speed and low speed needles.

    The problem is the motor dies when I roll from inverted to upright. This
happens mostly after I have been at idle for a while. I'm flying the
advanced routine and it dies during the roll out on the bunt and the bottom
of the double I even the slow roll. I have never made it more than about 3
minutes into a flight.

    It seems to run fine on the down lines at idle, like in the stall turns
and the outside square loop.
    When it dies it sounds like someone pulled the fuel line off the engine,
it just un winds. We tried leaning the low speed needle, replaced the tank
internal fuel line to the clunk.

    Any advice?
