This was a great idea. I had a lot of fun trying to get the course down. I set a lot of lighthouses on fire before finally getting it down. I plan on trying a few different airframes later and see if I can beat that 1min 9sec.

If anybody wants to get up and try this online I'd be more than happy to capture it. Might be a good way to document peoples times.

Well, you should definately come in more straight on your approach.

Also on the full circle, I kept WEP on. The only time I took off WEP was during the first S turn section.

I'll try a couple times right now and post back with my results.

EDIT: What was your exact time? just so I can document it.

EDIT2: Tried about 10 more times and got a new best by about .3 seconds. 1:09.217
