ORIGINAL: Rate1
The problem with dremel tool is it is just too hard to put it aside.
F1 former stock: 67gr or 2,36 oz
After it turned into a swiss cheese: 50gr or 1,76 oz

Oh, the fuz is slowly taking shape...
A though, perhaps I am going out too hard with this weightsaving idea? ...well, well at least it is fun.
So far I have narrowed the reductions down to:
Carbon fiber wing tube: 2oz
Contest balsa sheets: 10 oz
Fuz sides: 2 oz
Change to 15 light weight 1/4" balsa stringer: approx 0,6 oz
Fuz Bulk heads: 0,47 oz
F1 Bulk head: 0,6 oz
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Total weight reduction so far: 15,67 oz, or 0,98 lbs.
