| Good to hear things went well.
After a bad start (involving me ruining the piston & sleeve, and having to re-build the engine after 3 minutes of runtime).
I've put about a gallon through mine - though I tend to be a bit more conservative (in terms of breaking in the engine) - mine never left a hover for the first five tanks.
And I was reminded of one very important reminder for a guy like me who's used to flying .50 sized machines: The blades are about 10 cm longer on a .90. This is very important to remember when using the head button to slow the rotor blades after a flight. If you don't remember, the spinning rotor blades will remind you.
Fortunately, I didn't get cut, there was no blade damage, and the blades didn't draw blood. But three days later, my shins are still sore...
