Congrats Paul!
    Welcome to the the club! Glad to hear you made it up & down ok. But I must agree with Rusty, as I'm sure your probably already aware and get that power issue resolved. I can't imagine having to aim for a gap in the trees when flying off a paved strip (heck, any strip for that matter). You're probably correct in that it's a fuel mixture issue. If you already know that you've programmed it lean, then this is the logical place to start as it takes fuel to make power.
    Good to hear that your temps dropped on climb out, hopefully they will still be able to hold their own when you make more power. What was your climb speed? What about your oil temps?
 
    Again, congrats and welcome to a very exclusive club.
