If you choose to fly it, do a circling climb over the field after take-off to remain within gliding distance while you get some altitude. Be prepared for full or partial power loss at any time.
Amen to the battery and the climbing circle is a great idea. But you might ask a few more people sense we now have a "do not" and a "do" for pulling it through...


now its my 4 cents...
