Rino,

I just noticed that there is a service alert for EC-3s shipped prior to 6-1-08.  When did you get yours? 

Surging could be caused by the EC-3 hunting for a map table address.  Are you quite certain that this is not related to the map table?

Tracy,

Anyone had a problem with the Renesis crank angle sensor and had to change it.  I may have to get a new crank angle sensor, but first I want to check with you guys.

Tracy is probably gone to Colorado, maybe someone got this problem before.

I cannot get full power on my Renesis for takeoff on Controller A.  Seems like controller B works OK.

It is not the fuel mixture, I tried that.  Actually, when the throttle is wide open the mixture display goes up and down rapidly, from full lean to full rich and the engine surge.

I had a similar problem when I first installed and started the Renesis.  I had the EC2 controller then and had to get the EC3 to fix the problem.  Now it is coming back to me on the EC3, I think.  The problem then was with the crank sensor, the EC2 could not handle the sensor signal at more than about 5000 rpm.

I think the problem started progressively during the last few hours of flight, at first I thought it was a fuel mixture problem and was trying to ajust for that but now it is not a mixture problem.  Since the controller B has NO temp. sensor and works ok, I wonder if it has anything to do with that problem on controller A.
