Data Evalutation
1) Substantial but intermittent GPS navigation dropouts.
2) AC power shutdown during flight due to overheat. Aircraft never got to full altitude. AC power cycling did effect the data stream at 1152 hrs GMT. There is a continious data stream with no reported dropped scanlines, however video data does appear to have some missing scanlines. There are erroneous role values at this time as well.
3) Severe buffetting is evident in video data due to altitude changes during cycling.
