Re: OS .61 dies when flying inverted

IF, when upright, your tank centerline is below the carb jet, then when 
inverted it will be above the jet by the same amount, for a difference of 
twice the distance.  The fuel mixture, properly adjusted for upright
flight, 
will become rich - possibly too rich -  and the engine will load up. 
Midrange throttle typically is a bit rich anyway.  Try raising the tank.

If that's not the problem, try adding landing gear on the top.
