We have 2 of these at our field - with KT 210 G2 (appx. 1750g + 150g in cables) and Swiwin 220 (appx 1750g + 50g in cables)

Images for setup are similar to the ones on:

I thought about putting the 235 - but the K235 G4 (2100g + 50g) an additional 250g compared to my K210 G2 . To offset - I will have to add 250g to the nose. The performance with the K210 is great and with the 220 much better. The stock tank is 4L - as such you have to possible add another tank for the 235 as well.

Mods I made to save battery tray weight:
Moved stock 250ml UAT to forward fuselage (just a little front of the battery tray)
Fuel pump is under battery tray
Smoke pump is also under battery tray
Batteries used: 1X 3S Hobbyking LIFE 2200mah, 2X 2S LIPO 2200mah Pulse

Weight on front nose wheel - appx 900g (no lead weights anywhere).
