  Make sure your clunk inside the tank isn't tangling up on the vent line,
or touching the back of the tank, OR that there's a hole in the fuel pickup
line where it goes on the tube in the stopper.....any of those would cause a
time-into-flight failure...

    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?
