hsn needles settings

[dh131286]

following the hpi manual as to the break in procedure once tuning the hsn it says not to turn more than 1 1/2 from flush. i have had to turn it just over 1 1/3 turns to get it running right. does this sound normal having to turn it nearly to the max?

As long as your temps are right, and you should still see smoke....I wouldn't expect it to be a problem. .... The main thing is the temps though.

nice trail of smoke at WOT 1/8 of a turn richer on the hsn and the engine runs crap. there was no graduale rise in performance got to 1 1/3 then it ran sweet just didnt want to turn it any more as it was so close to 1 1/2 turns.

Well as all engines differ in respect to tuning, most of the published settings are just a guide anyway, tune it for running well and call it good.
