When I did my first few short engine runs, I found the idle speed was set way to slow (the engine sputtered at idle, which was only maybe 200 - 300 RPM). I've increased it (by the adjustment screw on the carb) to between 650 and 700 RPM now. My only concern is that if I set it too high I will have trouble getting it to land on my first flight. I have 4000 ft of runway to work with, but I've been told teh -9A will float a lot, and that even a little bit too much idle power will exacerbate this.
Is between 650 and 700 RPM a suitable idle speed?
