Computer nerd bit Bit of success, I managed to get a live view of my Gopro on my Windows7 lap top, I failed at my fist attempt then I realised I needed to enter the path to my video program I tried this tiny 80gram motor on 4 cells in my Electra with a smaller prop and it worked well, I haven't put a watt meter on it as the results might frighten me I

Panoramic photo of the splendid new strip at GMFC. I
enjoyed some nice lift with my DLG and re-maidened my Moray racer with
considerably more success than the first flight, Tim (I think it was)
maidened a plane he first built 40 years ago, Chris had a
disappointingly floppy experience, Jonathan failed to get his new
gasser off the strip despite repeated high speed runs and Dave and Kev
turned up to do some engine tuning. Friday Saturday Sunday
