RB Concept Engine Thread

It seems we have found the problem.
The low speed needle was pre set far too lean. 1 1/2 turns to far.
Took it back to what the instructions say, and, its not perfect yet, but its getting very close now.
Either way.
Why is there absolutely no information on this engine, not even by RB themselves?

Power was never an issue, nor was tightness. Even after a very slow 2ltr of fuel, it would start easy, but it just wouldn't run very long.
Since finding the problem, its been running well. The fault was with RB, no fault of ours. We took for granted that the needle settings were right from factory (like every engine we have had anything to deal with)

The AAC engines are fast . I have a zenon and love it. I never start it without heating it first. I have put about 3 gallons on mine and still can't turn it over without heating it first. With these engines you cannot ever run them lean or you will ruin them.

how do you heat at track? they have power there, also do you have to heat in summer when its like 90 plus outside? ive been wanting to try one out, but the heating deal has me stuck,unless i can find a way to provide portable heat..lol..these guys are light as well, surely you have to adjust suspension to accomandate

before I start it, I alway's pre heat it, let fully warm up before tuning
