DA50 dying in blenders

[njswede]

The DA50 in my 88" Aerobeez Slick dies when I do blenders. Luckily, I've had enough rotation/windmilling for it to start again. But I almost had to change my underwear...

Is this a known issue? How do I troubleshoot? I'm using the stock tank that came with the plane and a standard clunk setup.

What fuel tank?

What fuel tank?

Aerobeez stock tank. But I just ordered a Fortitude tank.

Cancel that and order a WrongWayRC!

Actually, I've got an extra wwrc 16.9oz

Let me know

Hmmm... This looks like a blown head gasket to me....

Just talked to DA. They're sending me a new gasket.

That looks like a base gasket right?

 

[njswede]

Yeah I guess that's what it's called. There isn't really a head gasket...

 

[AKfreak]

I think there is an O ring that acts as a head gasket.
