1300 is a bit too high Mal. Increase pitch or rejet. Shoot for 1200.
Yeah, the headache was pretty bad that day. Could barely fly my own, let alone having to worry about yours.

I believe Rotax wants 1,200F. I would like to add, indicated temp is like airspeed. The final word is the plugs. My Indicated Temps may or may not be accurate. I started off a bit cool (rich)... at 1150 F at cruise and the plugs showed cool... then went to factory settings and been there mostly since.
Remember there are big differences from WOT and cruise temps as much as 200F cooler at WOT and this is on purpose...
Ho ho ho

If out side air temp is 40 degrees will the gage be reading 30 degrees hi or low?as 70 degrees is ambient.
If the egt reads 1200 at 40 outside air temp what is actual egt temp? and how will ajusting the prop change this? mal
