I assume you had it properly baffled.
Any idea what your RPMs in the sky were after prop unloading? Temps while flying?

Sure it was baffled with cowl flaps fully opened during flight.
That day I made 2 flights only. Below are graphs from onboard telemetry. As you can see, it's obvious that failure happened during 2nd flight. I have also video from 2nd flight but I didn't notice anything suspicious.
