Anyone came across a DA100 going back to idle in a 45 degree dive or inverted ?

Electronics i.e. servos linkages have all been checked nothing spotted there, the only logical explanation that comes to mind is a faulty ignition or a bad carb spring.

Any feedback would help.

Thanks

If it looses power that is one thing.
If it goes to idle that is completely different.
Does it do it all the time when inverted?
Nothing should cause it to go to idle except for throttle position.

If you are loosing power, then it could be the ignition but the attitude of the plane should not make any difference.

It's loosing power, however coming out of the inverted or dive, I would get power back up again. It's a strange issue.
