My Entry, Brodaks Ringmaster with an La25 and a funky funky tank. It keeps shedding stuff from the inside.

During my first flight today, slightly after going inverted from a nice, easy pulling over the vertical wingover, the engine died, mostly. and sparked for a couple laps finally giving enough of a burst to get it upright again, where I did a touch and go with the engine sputtering. And finally it leaned out for 3 or 4 laps then sputtered and died. Hey, I still have all the parts. I put a uniflow line on the tank and it ran the whole flight a bit lean after I got into the air, it was a bit rich on the ground, but the whole flight was the same amount of lean. There's probably a big snotball of old castor in the tank I'm whittling down with mixed oil fuel. But it was a good day overall. Time to baby sit.
