I know it will probably weigh more than most other planes with the same wing area because there is quite a bit more wood in the fuse. Not counting the tail post or firewall there's 8 formers in between, and a box crutch running down the center, but i've used lightning holes and have been choosing my wood carefully. Hopefully the weight is no more than 6 pounds with floats, otherwise i might have to stick my Saito 80 in the nose instead of the Magnum fs 52 i just bought for it. I'm sure i can keep the floats themselves to about a pound.
