This is actually the second flight since the Big Repair. I had some timing issues with the engine, but they're all sorted out.
A few notes -
1) Tightening up my pattern is a must, as I've been taking these terrible long low ones that aren't any good. Last time, when I didn't have a camera on board, naturally I rounded it out and landed picture perfect!
2) Putting the GoPro on top of the gun magazine sounded great in my head, but it moves around a little in flight (or so I found). Worse than the head mounted SpazCam.
3) Some minor oil leaks to chase down, but other than that all is well.
4) WooHoo! She's flying!
