Hi Rusty; When I had the mag tube measuring flow rates, I neglected to measure the minimum flow rate, but I did measure the current draw at .2 amps at min flow. This is with cold well water in the system. As the sensor heats up flow rate will increase. I should have measured flowrate increase from min to max by putting the sensor in a pot of cold water and bringing to a boil. This would have been interesting. Unfortunately at this time I'm more interested in moving forward with the installation and getting in the air. > Also, your pics are GREAT! I can't believe it's painted that well before > flying.

Due to environmental conditions up here, I wanted to have it painted before leaving it outdoors, and I felt I should do it right, cause if I don't have time to do it right the first time, when will I have time to do it right the second time? I don't know if you have any RV experience, but I > promise you'll love the way it flies. I've had a little. Enough to know that I'm gonna love it! S.
