                It won't put anyone off who knows what they are doing. I flew nitro planks a long time ago and I'd have taken the motor off and run through a few tanks to make sure it runs ok. I've never looked at a heli engine though. I'd look at the throttle opening and see if it closes or read the manual for the engine. If it hasn't been used for a while it probably needs taking apart and cleaning.

                I found this link.

                irvine 36 MKII, throttle doesnt cut - RC Groups

                They suspect an air leak. You should be able to see the opening closing from above. I still have an Irvine somewhere.

                    Well done mate.
                    When i first started out with a Raptor 30 there was no way i was going to attempt to start it up on my own, so i too joined a club and got some excellent advice and made some good friends.

                    Good look, stick with it and have fun!

                      Well done Nigel. It is much more fun learning alongside others and having knowledge and encouragement on tap.
                      Enjoy the buzz and happy landings!
