Today I was finally finished work on rivet and details on fuselage.
Tomorrow I will finish cowl and install engine.
I measured everything to see what is P 47 weight.
Here is a results:
- fuselage with tail servos. servos for pneumatic, pneumatic valves and tail wheel with mechanic - 4530 gr
- ailerons, flaps, and all other control surfaces - 780 gr
- engine with bracket - 3850 gr
- other parts - 1350 gr
- cowl with dummy engine - 1290 gr
- pilot and canopy - 300 gr
- wing with retracts - 5900 gr
Total exactly 18000 gr - 18 kg or 39,7 pounds...
I think that batteries, wing servos, receiver, switch... will be around 1 - 1,5 kg - 2,2 - 3,3 pounds, paint about 1,5 kg - 3.3 pounds, propeller and spinner - 0,5 kg - 1.1 pound...
Hope that not need to add ballast in front., engine mount is heavy and everything is in front....
I will be quite happy with 22 kg - 48 pounds
We'll see...
