Default RE: Pattern Rules Proposals

Ryan,
   You are correct.  My apologies.  There should be no weight limit at all.  I also have no trouble making weight but I spend $100 on a carbon fiber prop that weighs half of what the "other" prop weighs to save 60 grams so that I can put in a redundant battery system that weighs 40 grams.  All this to stay around 4950.  I just don't get why we should have a weight rule.  The 2 meters should be limiting enough.  PLEASE, bring your 15 pound airplane and compete against me.
