Submitted for your consideration....

    These vids are a bit larger in size since I saved them to my memory card
    instead of sending them through the phone.  You will need QuickTime or a
    3g2 player.

    The engine took a bit longer to kick on in this video since I was
    showing my buddy the injector test mode and forgot to end it before I
    flipped on the fuel pump.  Thus, the engine was a bit "pre-flooded"<g>.

    That is me at the controls and my buddy, Russell, on my cell phone cam.

    I am coming to the conclusion that many/most of my current concerns are
    electrically based.  So, I will be running and checking wires AGAIN. I
    am really annoyed by the RPM indicator going to zero when I go over
    about 5400ish rpm. I still have some power to go but do not know what I
    actually achieve.

    Still lots more to discover and tweak.  However, did you notice my plane
    is actually moving under its own power <G>. Wow, who'd of thunk it.

    Oh, btw, on an unrelated note, I was promoted to corporal today at work.
    (we only have corporal's and sergeants on the streets).  FWIW.

    All the best,

    Chris

    Chris please upload them to youtube and it will work for everybody

    I can do it for you under the tittle of Rotary powered Velocity.
    We can always use some more rotary powered aircraft videos.
    It would be better if you had a higher rez video camera.

Chris,

Great video.  Do you have a "targeted" first flight date yet?  I did my
first flight in August (probably not the best time to test my cooling
system for the first time).

Of course Paul.  I am learning as I go <g>

Here ya go.  Vids on utube

Right after we took these vids we discovered a reason for some of the rough
running.  The Crank Angle Sensor hold down nut was loose. Gotta check the
basics.

I got my buddy Russell to come out with his new high def camera video.  He
realized how to use the infinity focus AFTER these vids.  DOH!

All the best,

Chris
