Congratulations on your .65 Demon. I would like to hear an audio file of that engine on a scorching hot pass. You flying the ''split-S'' pattern? That is a gut wrenching feeling when you lose visual and you know you only have less than a second to find it. Very important to have a spotter at these speeds. I totally agree with you on having a throttle too. I would also like some contact info on those props you are using.

Great job!

I uploaded the video to YouTube: [link=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAiwm9Mq588&feature=youtu.be]SD .65 flight 4 audio[/link]

It isn't running at the rpm of the F3S guys overseas, but sounds okay. The camera is fixed staring across the field, so this is audio only BORING. Skip to 2:30 or so for the later passes. Early in the video you can hear me commenting on looking down at the transmitter and losing it.

Hey, you can actually see it for a sec at 2:18. Lucky, notice how far I am from the camera.

At 1:25 it's throttled back and sounds like Chewbacca.
