Hi Angus,
I wonder how would everybody feel about the idea of 5Kg +or- 1% ,including fuel and or propulsion batteries.
It would seem like a good way to have a level playing pitch and the FAI 5Kg limit.

So do you think IC and electric models are treated equally within the existing rules? Personally I think it would be a more even playing field if all models were weighed before take off and each had to be under weight ''X''. Allowing IC planes to be weighed without fuel yet stipulating under the same set of rules that electric planes must be weighed with batteries is unfair and bias against electric.
