YS 140L Question

[Earl Haury]

Another consideration when you have the luxury of too much power. Simply limit the max throttle (ATV, linkage, etc.) to provide the power you wish at the proper needle setting. Running an engine rich to reduce power will almost always lead to idle, transition, etc. problems (and wastes fuel). Always set the needle to the position that provides the proper air / fuel ratio basis best power (that doesn't mean too lean) for best performance and use the throttle opening to limit power as desired. One wouldn't consider running their car at full throttle and richening the A/F to limit speed - don't do it with a model engine either.

  One other thing you can do is cut back on your nitro. Dropping from 30% to 25% will cut your power back with-out having to over richen. Why spend the extra bucks for the nitro just to flush it through your engine.
