Leutloffa, you're doing a very difficult thing here, lofting a camera that is half the weight of your plane! Not only is the weight a factor, but on that little thing even the aerodynamic drag is significant. The extra weight may have helped you fly in that wind but the Champ is better in the wind than most other ultra-micros. You'll find the UM T-28 is even better.

Now if I take that same 15 gram camera and stick it to my Slow Stick it makes no difference at all, just about no matter where I put it, even on a wingtip. I dial in a couple clicks of opposite trim and zip! So what you've done here sure has my respect. You're ready to progress!

Aside: wonder if I'm crazy enough to try mine on my Vapor.....
