During the second flight the wind picked up gusting over 30 mph at times . It flew well with the extra ballast but could use the steel rod modification inside of the carbon spars with the higher weight . It is really pretty in the air -

The plywood box to keep everything secure . I used tape to hold the weight in this first time out to verify the c/g In the future I will install a blind nut and a screw to keep things in place, add or subtract weight
