Isn't this thread about the Pinnacle?
Anyhoo... had a chance to fly a DZ powered Pinnacle today with an all up dry weight of about 10.75 lbs... Though it was the glow version, and this thread is about the electric version I have to say... wow, what a beautiful flying airplane! Absolutely smooth and positive... after the second flight I wanted to walk over and kick my Genesis. I still want to actually, but instead I'm going to wipe the slate clean and start retrimming.
I don't care how heavy the wings are on the Pinnacle... it's a great airplane. You could always use lighter servos if need be and save an ounce a side if that's your concern.
