there's the 2 seconds to plane I'm accustomed to! that 140 just heaves my 16' out of the water again
It was already just about dark so I didn't troubleshoot which temp sensor was doing it, or whether it was caused by wires too close to the spark wires, but no tan leads and it took off! Daselbee i did make this harder than it needed to be

It does still leave the nagging question of "7.

Meter must show no continuity." but i will troubleshoot that another day.
Whatever the case, no tan wires and it flew.
