<P>Jason,</P>
<P>I know little about any of the setups you are using. However I remember
reading somewhere on this list about the distance of the baffle in the ES pipe
is much further back than the baffle in the Mintor pipe. The problem maybe a
result of having your pipe too long. </P>
<P>I believe Lance and some other people were discussing this issue than a week
ago.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>I am assuming you are trying to prepare for the trials. Good luck with it
all. </P>

<P>I forgot, my set-up is as follows:</P>
<P>A5 front, F rear.</P>
<P>High rise 3M header, not cut.</P>
<P>ES 140S pipe (1/8" gap)</P>
<P>PowerMaster 15/16</P>
<P>Richened the low end 1/4 turn from stock</P>
<P>Main needle 1 3/8 out</P>

<P>Well, finally went flying today (without 40 mph winds) and tried the A5/F
combo. Still not super smooth transition. Leaned out the low end (I think,
counter clockwise) and transition was smoother on the ground, but still loaded
up in the air. I didn't go richer (clockwise?) cause of frustration and sun
burn, so that'll be tomorrow also. Am I doing this all wrong?</P>
<P>Here's my real problem. I am flying basically an 11lb AS. No prop I've tried
from a 16x16-19x8 2B's to 15x13.5 &15.75x13 3B's and 15.25x12 4B can really
slow the plane down. The best seems to be the 15.75x13 3B and tomorrow I'll try
the 15x11 4B, but it seems that the motor is just winding up on the downlines.
Then it takes 1/2 the box to slow it down again so I can make a smooth
transition to full. This makes some of those rolling and snapping passes a bit
too fast. And forget the vertical maneuvers...they're horrible.</P>
<P>Is it just because the plane is a pig or cause the 3M is a 2-cycle (or
operator error)?</P>
<P>Thanks,</P>
<P>Jason</P>
