Gaui NX7 - Flights #23 and #24

A couple of good flights today.

Richened up the main needle by two clicks oer what I had at Wagga, and also richened up the mid by one click. Engine came down with a nice warmth to the backplate and was making good power.

Flips, loops, and general "zooming" around the sky.

The gain settings that I changed on ST-2 were horrible. The heli was almost uncontrollable after a flip, so I will increase them to see if I can find a good medium

Two flights of eight minutes each
