Maintenance

After each flying session:

1. Fully drain the fuel from the tank.
2. Start the engine and run it until the fuel is

completely run out of the engine.

3. Try starting the engine three more times or until

it will no longer fire. This gets all the fuel out of
the engine.

At the end of every flying session, several drops (about
10) of after-run oil (Evolution Engine's Blue Block Rust
Inhibitor) should be applied into the venturi and the
engine should be flipped over for a few seconds with the
starter. This will prevent rust and corrosion.
