Launch Day 2

More photos from first run. I didn't fiddle with the engine settings so can go quite a bit leaner on the fuel mix and also dial in some more advance timing on the MSD ignition. I ran a conservative map at 20degrees advance ignition timing out of an estimated maximum 25 degrees. Standard igntion timing is fixed at 18degrees +/- 2 degrees.


Aim for the middle of the lake!
