Title: Break in for Magnum 36
Post by: James Mills on May 11, 2007, 09:23:15 PM

What's the best approach for breaking a Magnum 36?  Do I need to kick it up into 2 stroke during the run or just let it run at a fast 4 cycle?

Thanks,

James

james, Randy said (if I remember correctly) to run it in a wet 2 and then pinch the line every so often.  No 4 cycle, at least not a slobbering rich one......... ours did not take much breaking in at all. ABC construction and a good fit, so just some running to get familiar with it!  Ours did get a little better on gas milage after several flights, but the run characteristics didn't change.
