I am so lazy to learn how to "tune" the engine so I've just ordered this little device from Taiwan. Hopefully, it will perform as advertised. Theorectically, the carbsmart wiill constantly monitor the engine temperature and automatically adjust the mixture needle to gives maximum output.
Controls fuel mixture by monitoring cylinder head temperature.
Simplifies mixture adjustment.
Helps protect engine
Makes mixture less critical to weather changes.
Allows higher, more consistent, power output.
Requires a servo and linkage for use,
does not require a radio channel.
Size 21 x 30 x 4 mm, 5g
CarbSmart is used in conjunction with a servo connected to the main needle of the carburettor to adjust the mixture in flight dependant on the cylinder head temperature. The unit has a user selectable target temperature. When the head is below the target temperature the unit moves the mixture towards the leaner direction. The extent to which this is allowed is again user adjustable. As the head reaches the target temperature the mixture is richened to the standard setting and as the head temperature exceeds the target value the mixture continues to richen until a user adjustable limit is reached. The gain of the system is also user adjustable.

I read about this gadget on RC Heli magazine a few issues back. Neat!
Where did you (chantaiman51) buy it?
I bought it from a model shop where I've ordered my 700np from. I didn't know where exactly this model shop is located, but the shop owner's name is Allan and his shop is located in Taipei, Taiwan. The sad thing though is he only has one instock, was thinking to get two units. If you need his contact info, just let me know, i can send you his MSN contact info.
Don't really know until I actually try it myself. But according to the reviews which I've read, people seems to give this little device nothing but excellent remarks. And you should know me well by now, I am suck at flying but always believe in getting the best equipments, haha....

Yes, please give me the model shop name and Allan's MSN and/or contact info. I will be visiting Taipei this summer so I can check out this model shop.
Thanks in advance!
