1st 'Outback' Flight

I've come to the business end of my CPL training and need to get some Solo hours up...So I'm leaving Adelaide tomorrow and am off to Coober Pedy for the weekend to visit some friends working up there. I'm planning to stop at Whyalla on the way up to top up the juice and either Pt Augusta or Leigh Creek on the way back. Also planning a day trip to check out Oodnadatta. Thus far the furtherest I've ventured solo from the nest (Parafield) is Mildura and north to Pt Pirie.

Just wondering if anyone has any tips, suggestions or experiences they would like to share about remote flying for a first timer. I'm going in a C172SP which is equipped with G1000 (not exactly going to have to work hard on getting there I know) but am still interested in suggestions! Pilotette
