Serial #40303 took flight this last Saturday after 9+ years of blood,
sweat, and the occasional profanity-laced tirade. Thanks to everyone on
this list and Matt for providing it. It was my go to resource when
scratching my head over several steps.
No heavy wing or other airframe issues. Just a couple of things to work
out between the AFS4500 and the VP-200. #2 and #4 are running a bit
hotter than the others, but I'll get that sorted out after break-in.
Here's a link to a rushed video I created of the event. Need to dial in
the ND filter on my GoPro and work on a better approach and landing, but
I'll take it for a first flight.

A big CONGRATULATIONS. Your video brought back great memories of my first
flight especially when you
Open the door as the engine stops. That big RV GRIN/SMILE and the feeling
you have (Priceless)

It's a GoPro with the new Sporty's variable ND filter attached. I set
the ND filter too dark by mistake and it added a purple tint to the video.
