Note: Motorcalc predicts a high wingloading with nicad/nmh. Li-polys would reduce it some. Just to make sure, the empty weight is 5 lbs. I assume that you weighed it. It seems high. This is the problem with converting some arfs. Pilot skill would make it work, but you are still looking at 30 ozs/sq. ft.
