Instead of fighting about what happens when someone brakes the rules, why not flying legal planes?? I dont think is any trouble with today airframes and equipments to be under 5kg
Yeah, a fully legal 2M that performs well doesn't have to be expensive. Mine uses traditional building methods without exotic parts, is relatively inexpensive (I only have about $1K invested), and performs well.
Suppose you have on hand the following components you want to use in your next plane to fly Masters Class.
1. Axi 5330 Fai motor.
2. 3 JR 8411 servos and 2 JR 3421SA servos
3. CC 85HV ESC
4. Zippy Highmax 10S 15C 5,000mah batteries
5. APC 20.5 X 14 prop
6. TruTurn FAI lightened backplate spinner
You decide to buy a SebArt Wind S Pro.
Guess what, you will be 4-5 ounces over weight.
Ask me how I know this!
So you decide to buy a Sickle.
Guess what again, you will be 4-5 ounces over weight.
Ask me how I know this too.
Try a CARF Integral!
Same thing!
Maybe others can easily make weight but it was pretty expensive buying lighter stuff to get my planes legal.
