    Here's the long awaited Video of the first run.
    Full throttle on take-off. 1/4 to 1/2 throttle the rest of the time due to the need for Turn-fins. But I already knew that.

    ----------> Video 1a <----------

        nice it looks fast
        but just for future reference. going black in the video really screws up what i see. Its better sometimes to leave it unedited.
        thanks-

          I had no choice BUT to edit it. I was in a few frames. I HAD to get ME out of the Video!!
          The fade to black was to transition the editing of ME out of the video.

                  The raw video is much clearer, and has better footage. Sorry my Niece operating the camera didn't know to keep me out of the shot. lol. Later this week, if Dirty can come out and play, I'll have better video, unedited.

                      I never liked being in front of the camera as far back as I can remember. After my surgery, I really really don't like it.

                          nice job man! sounds a lot like mine. what kind of power are you using? or even more direct what RPM are you running? I'm up to about 32k rpms and it quite honestly scares me.

                          I got some time in with my boat, but the leaves in the water are really screwing things up had to bring the boat in 3 times to pick out stems. you're very lucky to have that little pond.

                          I too hate being on video, I think they steal your soul.

                            I'm not sure. Lake management vehicles stop by once a month or so.

                                Okay... I found a much better video conversion software. Here's the same video with more footage. I did allow a few frames with me in them too. Sound removed for sake of size.

                                ----------> Video 1b <----------

                                ...and for Taylor, No fade to black!
