<DIV>I have a 140L in a Focus. Has been flying very well and very strong, with
never a problem. I have about 10 flights on this barely used engine and I flame
out in a very uncomfortable attitude. Vertical climb flamed out at about 25% of
the vertical in a stall turn. I was settled at 3/4 throttle, never need full
throttle flying Sportsman with this plane.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Although at the down wind part of the field and pointed the wrong direction
when the engine quit (straight up), I was able to drag her all the way in and
still managed to make it a very hot landing <vbg>.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, What kind of things would cause a very strong running motor to just
quit? If anything it was a tad bit to the rich side with a exhaust trail.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Fuel is WildCat 15% Nitro 18% Synth (no castor).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Pretty vague question I know, just curious what this typically ends up
being. I was planning on taking it to a contest this weekend.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>See ya,</DIV>
