Thanks Scoubidou....thanks for posting the original thread to give me some pointers.

Well, the trim was added and the cowl and wheel pants were painted to match.....the blue is a shade off...oh well.

Now, for the weigh in.......I am using a digital fish scale (up to 15lbs.) which has been accurate in the past....

Everything except fuel - 9lbs. 10oz. I will double check with another scale when I get the chance to take the plane to work. Right now, though, it feels very light.....lighter than my 11 lb. pattern plane.

This includes: YS140, tetra 16oz. tank, 1650mah Nimh, all servos, tru-turn spinner (lightened backplate), 16x10 apc, dave brown wheels, aluminum axles, mk tailwheel, spyder wire (fishing line) for pull/pull cables to elev. and rudder.

Ran the motor last night. Tint and glue on canopy and we're ready to go.....I hope.
