Default MT12 flameout / high temps

I post this in the NTC3 thread, because I don't have these problems in my AD2.

I have a recently broken in MT12 in my new FT NTC3. The problem is engine temps are above 270 without a body. I slowly richened up the mixture, but the motor will then flame out. Is this normal behavior for this motor / car? I've had MT12s in my XXXTs for 3 years, and I've never had temps near this high.

I don't have these problems with my AD2. Which leads me to beleave I goofed something in assemble of the NTC3. Car seems to be a rocket, though.

Thoughts?
