3lb 0.7oz as it sits here. Rx is installed, so is a 1400mAh LiFe 6.6V pack in the bay opposite the pipe for an attempt at lateral balance. Cowl in progress on right. Filler is epoxy, lots of balsa powder, some cabosil. Tough, light, sands really well with wet 120/220/400.

Final weight will be this plus what's missing.. 1/16" ply hatches, Al pipe bracket, trim. Maybe 3-1/4lb dry weight then.

The side exhaust pretty much cancels out all the streamlining efforts, but this was also a practice effort.
