You are definitely running heavy according to the spec's of the plane. I wonder how the retract are going to handle the extra weight if you need to change out the retracts you might look at this one from RC Aerodyne all medal says it supports up to 22 pounds but I believe it would handle more weight with no problem and it is a local company for you and I based in Kent Wa.shipped to you for about
