It is amazing what we learn through experience. Good luck on the repairs. Hope to see you airborne soon.
 

So my receiver still works fine! I'd lost the little antenna plugs from the PCB of the Rx so i cut some old ones off of an unused WWAN port on a Dell D420 and its all running ok. GPS pole is also back on and ok, albeit 1CM shorter than before.

Third flight over and rockin' 17 minutes on my 3000Mah 20C 3S LiPo (end voltage 9.6V), very happy indeed.

It seems to drift slightly forward and right. Which gains would I need to change to solve this?
