not as exciting as a first flight, but a
milestone for me. engine will only speed up to what shows as 1500
rpm. from the video however, I don't think that the prop looks like 500rpm
to me, so I question if my tach is reading correctly. beyond the
alleged "1500 rpm" the engine dies unless I pull the throttle back a bit [which
is open all of 15-20°] much more to test and learn. I will pull the
prop so I can safely put a timing light to the flexplate where I have timing
marks. supposedly at 22°BTDC.
