Sound to speed ratio seems a bit low. Maybe because gas engines sound different.

[@crazystevesrc1009]

Yes it is, she's running awful rich, when I lean her out the sound and speed should match, I have some tuning to do, another video, thank you for watching and commenting. Baroo

[@crazystevesrc1009]

@non7top yes they do sound different, plus just need to be tuned Crazy Steve

Heat cycles on these engine is pointless & will probably do more harm than good these are not nitro engines! you need to be running the RC around on low throttle/blips as this in turn moves the flywheel which has cooling fins to cool the engine! leaving it standing there idle for a period of time means there is no air being cycled around the engine, which is bad especially during break in! You may think that the engine is still running fine after the "heat cycle" but you have just shortened its life span & impacted its performance. Best way to break in 2-strokes on largescales: Tank 1: run at no more than 1/4 throttle, doing blips on the throttle. Tank 2: Same as above, but no more than 50% throttle. Tank 3: Same as above but 75% throttle for 1st half of tank, then 100% throttle for the remainder of tank. Tank 4: Engine is ran in, run as normal, over time the engine will still loosen up & gain performance, its not usually until around 5-6 tanks where you will seethe engines full potential. During the break in procedure you will probably need to lean the H/L needles slightly after 2nd tank but not too much. Just remember not to constantly keep throttle open during break in, just give blips of the throttle, no more than a few seconds.
