 I was wondering when you were going to post that it's going up. Looks nice! I can't wait to here how it performs.

Thanks for the replies. I took advantage of the beautiful weather today and balanced my blades and winched it up, here's a couple photos. So far so good, saw 23 MPH wind today with it consistanly starting to furl at 20 MPH and fully furling by the 23 MPH mark.
This was approx. 3 KW total from my hot water heating elements. Time to connect the logger for my Davis Weather Wizard and my RS RS232 DVM for logging volts and current. Updates to follow, it's fun to have it back up flying and heating water again besides.  Dave B.
