Gary vinyl turned out good, not many pics yet. This is one that has the EME 60 0n it, swinging a 24x8 falcon.

I take it Tim, and Redwing crew will be doing Nall this year?

My buddy had an eme 70 in his 3dhs yak ran good but it needed a 150cc sized pipe on it the 60cc pipe was restrictive.

Came out nice, I like it!

I suspect Tim will be there, haven't discussed with him yet. I won't be able to make it again this year

Any issues getting at the low/high speed needles or idle adjustment with the stock mufflers on the EME 70? From pics it looks like the muffler could block access to these.

Nope, stock mufflers allow access. I can get to mine from the front of the plane, just in front of the muffler.

Great - got one on the way from Mile High. Going into an Aeroworks 75cc extra 260. Was concerned from the pictures I could find this would be a problem.

Yes, mine are easily accessible as well. I kinda forgot about this thread. It's single digit temps again this week so not going to be flying, but I am looking forward to getting mine in the air. Ran it though three heat cycles on our last 40 degree day and I have to say I am super happy with the spool up, idle and top end. SUPER smooth engine throughout the range. Reliable low idle and 6600+ top end on third run up with a Falcon 24x9.

Here is my crappy cell phone pic trying to show how smooth this thing is. I adjusted the needles to exactly what the manual recommends plus about a blade width on the low end because of our cold air (more oxygen). Ran like a top.

Finally got a flight on mine today on my Edge. At about 20lb. the performance seems a bit anemic. I know it's a hair rich on the low but it did not burble or anything during the flight. It was only 43 degrees outside so it never even got warm. I remember when I had my first two gallons through my DA70 I was not completely impressed either so as soon as it warms up I'm going to fly the piss out of this thing and see if it wakes up.

I should add that with my baffling the engine fins were only warm to the touch after landing. If I could get the engine to warm up to actual operating temp I'm guessing it would loosen up a bit more.
