No Problem, I just assumed you jumping in this thread that you were about to start one.... As far as 15.25# on this bird with a D/A-50 yes it is very possible. I had mine @ 14.5# dry before i balanced, i am too lazy to block up the engine further and change the throttle linkage etc, sooo, I decided as this bird was not set up with 2 r/x packs that i would just do that and get the balast i needed to get the CG. So at least the weight gain supplies redundancy as well. I should come in just a little under 15# RTF, I'll be happy with that. (I HOPE!)
