Weights are as follows:

Left stab (with tubes) - 105g
Right stab - 95g
Top wing - 525g
Bottom wing - 510g
Fuselage - 1010g
Parts bag (gear/struts/horns/spinner etc.) - 395g

Total of 2640g. I'm using the Hacker Q80 13XS (520g) with the Hacker Mezon Opto 95 Lite (98g), 6 Futaba BLS173SV (28g each - total 168g), Futaba BLS175SV for rudder (66g), Futaba R7003SB Rx (7.1g). TP 900mah Rx pack (50g) and TP 5400mah (1170g) and Futaba switch which probably weighs around 5g. Total is around 4725g or so... and then the prop which is about 50g. I'm thinking the plane will be in the 4850 range - not bad!

Wing strut connection is as follows:
