Yay, some success at last, we finally get this sodding plane in the air, and in flight it's really nice.  It's big old lady and so I fly gently, and I'm not sure if I'll ever launch myself, but at the same time it's not something I'm just going to nip off for 30 minutes and have a quick fly with.

Plenty to fix - the VTX being the major issue, but you may also notice that the air speed sensor is not working despite perfect calibration at home ?!

I weirder problem we had is after the tuning, the entire system started to spaz out after putting a new battery in.  Servos were twitching, and the MFD AP was power cycling.  Will look at this on the bench.
