RE: Balsa USA 1/3 scale Sopwith Pup
several are flwon over here by our Dawn Patrol members, i dont know what they weigh, but i can find out after this weekend, but with all that wing area, i would not worry too much whatever it weighs, the things like a box kite, and for me,the heavier (within reason) the better, one thing i will mention, i have seen three fold up now, because the flying wires pulled out, they are standard metal quick links, into a piece of metal with a hole in (what a crap description from an engineer) the hole, on examination, had worn, make sure you have keepers on, or find a more substantial fitting, they do fail, bear in mind, the DPs ones are show aircraft, and have flown in quite a wind sometimes, but they do look well, power has been, would you believe, a zenoah 38 in a reduction drive, driving a scale size prop, at scale revs,
