Miss Bud 1/12 scale carb?

Just a quick question...I'm looking for the factory carb settings for the high and low speed needle adjustments (Or what works best on your bud)....boat is completely stock and broken in.

thanks in advance!

2.5 on the top end and 1.5 on the bottom...I believe...horrizion has the owners manuel on their site... or you can just get a Miss B. with a .18 and a flex...

Don't mess with the low end, the factory setting is where it should be!!!!

As for the high end needle, there is no setting that works best for someone. Every time you run a nitro you may have to make a needle adjustment. Sometimes more than once in the same day. As things change, temp,humidity,dew point,barametric pressure ect. this will call for a needle adjustment.

True, but there is a baseline and I think that is what he was asking for. My .21 mono has a remote needle so I can change it DURRING a run. But it still rarely moves far from the baseline.

I also found that backing out the low end needle alowed more fuel in while running at WOT. This brings the needle/spray bar out of the venturi to allow more air too. Makes it difficult to idle but that is not what I want to do!
