Paul,

 

My illness is not merely = speed.  I’m having more fun in the first 3 days than I did in the 700 hours of flying.  I think my build to flight hour ratio got too = low.

 

Today I’m taking my Crank = Trigger Coil bracket (not hall affect) to the shop to cut rotary slots (because = the tool is cool) of 4.5 degrees advance.  Now I’ll be able to = loosen 4 bolts and flip to race timing.  I don’t have the timing = indicator on my Plasma I boxes, but ….. would it be correct that at 30” = and 2700 rpm I’m not advancing?  Or rather I’m fully retarded 20 = off my 40 degree bolt?

 

Other fun projects included = splitting the case halves.  Next time I think I’ll just use a chainsaw and = go in perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

 

Oh yea, down and welded.  Yea = right………. Where’s the mental gymnastics?

 

Larry
