Capt Todd, No nose weight added. It weighs about 16 1/4 #. I used a 6 volt nicad 2400 stuffed forward in the nose as well as a 4 cell nicad, I believe 1 1400mah, for the engine also stuffed forward in the nose.
Thanks,

Thanks for your info....ok, you are talking about the Great Planes Waco right? It is supposed to be: Weight: 12.75 - 13.75 lb (5.78 - 6.23 kg) as per great planes. Yours is over 16 pounds? wow... How could great planes have gotten it so wrong?. Also I think it is not good that they don't specify that a dle20 or dle30 would work. My friend has a great planes super stearman with the dle30 in it and it has crazy torque on takeoff and is somewhat overpowered in my opinion. I think it would be the similar with the dle30 in this plane. Anyone else on here know what their great planes waco weighs rtf?
