Last night everything came together with the weather, the airplane, the mass between my ears, and the appropriate support team to make a low-profile launch right before sunset.
I pulled back at 65 KIAS and knew it was a solid handling airplane immediately which put my mind at ease. More than flying an airspeed on departure, I flew CHT's at full throttle full rich. Still have plenty of climb performance to safely fly. One cylinder just kissed 406 and then they all settled down around 370-80. Very happy with the cooling.
The airplane itself was hands off. Put it in a 10° bank, take your hands off, and it stays there like its frozen in space. Really handles very well. Stalls right at 55 and honest in the process.
No major squawks to report. Just some minor tweaks that I can work on.
Couldn't be happier with the airplane after 45 minutes of time in the air. I'm ready to go again...
