Thanks bjames, I've definitely got plenty to do and learn.
Thanks again guys. I've got my Venus back up and running and have given the thought of a new plane a rest. I'm in my first season flying, ever, and I'm on my 4th and 5th airframes - the idea of me buying another plane, a gas engine...just absurd!

The Venus is such a joy to fly. Now I need to learn how to trim it, tune it, adjust it, and FLY it! Maybe when my skill level is somewhere even close to the capabilities of the Venus II I'll start looking for an IMAC compatible gasser.

Not having a big, stable plane to fly (engine was bad and had to be replaced) really drove me nuts, and I know I drove a few of you nuts because of it, but thanks to everyone for the help, advice, and telling me to chill out in kind words. Hope to see you all next season as I fly my Venus in the Basic IMAC class in as many meets as possible
