Default G-26 tweeking

HI all. I have been running my RCIGN G-26 for a bit now with about 3 gal. of gas through it and it has been great. The last time I was out though I noticed it would now sputter and cut in and out when I was coming out of a loop or pulling out of a steep dive , after leveling off it would be fine again. This being my first gas engine I am not sure what carb. adj. I should make.

Thanks Pete

Lean out the H-needle little by little, until the sputter goes away.
It is caused by the high G-forces working on the regulator membrane. This causes the mixture to go very slightly richer. So if you experience this, your mixture is on the verge of 4-stroking rich, which is quite a bit too rich.

Both needles probably need to be adjusted, Read one of the many descriptions on here for carb adjustments.
