Well I sorted it. Checked the ignition earth, no problem, checked the ignition box earth, no problem. Tried starting nothing except a quick 1 sec burst of life. Checked spark using a spare plug. Good spark. Checked for fuel on the plugs in place - none! Checked the carb bowls for fuel and the pots for free movement, all OK. Added fuel to the filters, nothing. Squirted a couple of ml of fuel directly into the front two pots. Started to fire, stuttered a bit but just kept going. Ran fine. Stopped it, started fine. A couple of full throttle runs up and down the runway followed by 20 mins in the air, all fine! No idea what the problem really was. Will try again today! Thanks for your input all.
