Default RE: 2m Pattern Plane Weight Problems

A light motor may save a lot of weight. See pics below.
AXI 5330/F3A ~700 grams
Himax 6330-200 ~620 grams
Plettenberg 30-10 ~590 grams

You may save some more form the prop.
APC 21x14 ~120 grams
Falcon CF 21x14 ~67 grams

As others already mentioned, battery pack may save the most. For example, I used 2900-3200 mAh in the new short Master sequence, so I don't need TP5300 10S (~1170 grams). I'm using TP4350 10S (~1045 grams) now.

Hope this will help
