Engines Plugs Mufflers Fuel > Need Help with OS 50 H Engine in flight condition

Alright am having a slight problem with my Vibe 50 OS 50 Hyper engine. That might be a problem or might not be one. I’m using a CSM Carb Smart with the low end set at 2 T and Rich side set at 2 T 1/3, what ever the max it can go. The problem I’m having with the engine is that, after utilizing half tank of nitro, which is nearly 6 minutes of flight, my engine starts to lean out loud and seems as if, it’s going to explode with giving a lot of vibration. Wanted to know, what can be the cause to such a lean condition and vibration.
I’m using is :
15 % Nitro
20 % Oil
65% Methanol

After Landing, checked my engine and seems to be in an excellent condition. So is this noise a normal thing or is their some problem. Need advices and suggestions.

Thanks.

If your pipe is coming loose, that'd be a bad thing. It would def. make a loud noise and cause the engine to lean out.

I had that happen. Pipe was a little loose....ran lean. Give them a snug while the engine is still warm might do the trick.

Pipe is perfectly fine, not loose. Upon that it's a lean noise.

What pipe are you using? Is the head loose?
