Default GP Tracer - good intro to pattern

I bought the Tracer when it first came out a few years ago and finally flew it this weekend. With a howling 20-25 MPH wind, the plane took off with ease and required just 2 clicks of aileron and 2 clicks of elevator. The GP Tracer is an excellent introduction pattern plane... or maybe the first pattern ship for competition. The Kougar and Kaos were always local favorites, but the Tracer feels more confident and crisp, allowing for slightly better precision.

I'll take more video of upcoming flights, but for the first two flights, we've posted some images and video here:
