He just didn't give it time to warm up.
Looked cold to me plus he was prying on the dogs.
He didn't even get it up to WOT before he got it in the wood also. Probably some tough hardwood out of the Black Forest   :D;D

I think it could be a good thing if they can get away from the stratified engine design by using the fuel injection.  Wonder if still a strato?

Good video of the 500i. Latest one posted May15th.
Looks to be putting out lots of power for a 13.6 lb 80cc saw.

Yep I posted it there. What I see is the saw is running too rich probably again not fully warmed up but still pulling good.

 Just read this Alex from a guy in Germany = Holzmachen magazine and they write that the MS 500i will be presented to the general public at the Interforst show in Munich, Germany on July 18th-22th 2018. Some markets, also Germany the 500i is already for some customers as limited version available for the beginning of the wood making season 2018/2019 (sounds like beginning of winter). The general release should be worldwide at the beginning of the next year. All this was in an article in the Holzmachen magazine. No warranty if that information is right or not.
