There's a lot of variables in engine tuning, not just the mill itself. Weather has a lot to do with it, heat and cold as well as humidity. What may be dialed in FL prolly won't work in CA and neither would work running indoors in the winter in IN. Just remember the basics when you are tuning. Get your HSN set first before tinkering with the LSN. Ensure you idle is set right. Most important, patience and very small adjustments.

I run a platnium .21 and .28 both are under rated engine. Like previously stated, tuning depends on quite a few factors. Elevation, hummidity, air temp., fuel nitro %, glow plug type. I am sure you will be happy with the engine, just take your time tuning it. If you have a few extra dollars this is a great book to have. It will teach you everything from break-in to rebuild.
