I got some more good flights in this weekend since the weather cleared up.
Today my Super Impress II UAV made it's 3rd, 4th and 5th flight and navigated between 10 waypoints.

PICTURE 1
I managed to get my camera out and took a picture as a full-size sportplane crossed the sky during my flight. My small UAV and the full-size look as if they are on the same altitude, but the full size was much higher of course...

PICTURE 2
The waypoints for flight no 5

PICTURE 3
An aerial photo over my area - the flying field and approximate waypoints

The next step is to add video and/or my small Pentax but I've decided to go for a slightly larger airframe du to the weight already being 30 oz on a 42" electric. At 34 oz I wouldnt trust the airframe...
