If it ran that low it may not even plane. Are you sure the tach is right.

not to sure,by sound i swear its more but tach says different.thats basically why im asking ,it didnt seem right. im going to hook up a tach i got here to verify its proper.as for getting onto plane ive had ne issues whatsoever.it gets up and goes easily.i will check all of that tomorrow and see what happens.thanks for the input.
