Unhappy bad hesitaion...please read!!

ok sometimes...(and i say that becuase it really is intermittin) i get a horrible hessitation...to the point where even if i let off the throttle and then back on it still does it, itll barly accel....but when droppoed to idle its fine....and the wierd part is itll act like this for mabye 1-5 min then all of sudden just vanish as if nothing is wrong....
wtf is going on.....mind you ive spent 7 years on piston setups....and i am (hate to admit it) not that knowlegable on rotaries (yet).
any advice would be appreciated

check your fuel system, Ignition and TPS (Throttle Position Sensor).

I have the same problem and its my TPS.

Sounds like a very simular experience to mine. I replaced my TPS. It was shot. I would check the TPS by the voltmeter method. Forget the 2 bulb method, very mundane at best.

It may not be the TPS but It's a starting point when horrible hesitations are Involved, besides the notorious 3800rpm one.
