I can report success. The ST 2300 flew as good as it ever has on any other type of system. Still some tuning to be done but midrange and throttle response were good for a quick tune. I did have a dead stick at the end of this video. The HS needle turned out to be a couple clicks lean and I failed to do a proper “nose up” before flying. The landing hurt a stay cable attach ring on the skis so we were done for the day ,but I got enough flying in to determine that this system is worth perusing and testing further.

FYI. Under the snow is our “new” flying site. Grass strip went in last fall and will be relocating here next year. I’m in heaven as it’s less than 5 minutes from my house!!!
It appears the YT link is not working? Didn't open, copied the link from message to separate tab and gave error message "page not availlable" (while YT in itself is responding normally on the connection I am currently on)

Edit: don't know what changed but the video is playing... COOL!
