I just finished-up my Venus II over the weekend. A few minor things left to do but I am extremely impressed with how quick the kit went together-- even for somebody like me who second-guesses everything in the manual!

Dry weight is just over 7.5lbs. This is with a YS-91FZ in the nose and using all "stock" items from the kit (including the spinner). JR 811's on aileron/elevator (4 total), Hitec 5625 on rudder and HS-81 on throttle.

Oh, the wingspan of the plane is just a hair over 66 inches.
