Take off
 

Hi guys I'm trying to take off with rich mixture but the engine is not developing enough power. It seems I have to use lean mixture but it's strange to me. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

Haha...

Mate being a winner in this instance is being bored as hell in front of my computer with nothing else to do (no money) right now..

Actually wait..... I had money but it decides to throw itself at my Bike!

~S~

Pitch is fine and engine warmed up completely. You really keep the mixture reach (lever full back) and take off?
I don't even reach the 2.100 rpm
Leaning the mixture rpm goes immediately up and take off...

...which...plane...?

I have been testing the Hurri myself and notice it seems to take a long run to get off the ground.

Usually I revup the eng at fine pitch to 3000pm then during the roll when the speed as increased to 40/50mph I coarse it a little down to 2800/2850 for max torque. This shorten my take-off roll.

But don't forget to move the throttle forward ;-)
