Default RE: how much additional weight is too much?

jent,

Eventually, adding weight would become a problem. 25 grams shouldn't be a big concern.. It's more like trial and error.

The more weight you add, the heli will become less responsive and will put some extra stress on the main motor but that shouldn't be a major concern either, just check the temperature of the motor after flight, weight is okay if your just a backyard flyer or some mild sports stuff.

The weight thing really effects the heli when doing some radical 3D.


Just keep track of how the heli react when weight is added.
