I did a few strokes on a 10k to get this thing back in action, and it seems to have worked great.

Today was spent at the RC airplane field doing a bunch of "spring cleanup" and flying. We did lots of work on the grass runway, stowed the plexiglass enclosure now that it's warming up, did some painting, etc. I got a bit of a sunburn, but hopefully it's not too bad.
