Default RE: elevator induced snap.

33 dm^2 is 511 sq in or 3.55 sq ft of wing area. That weight places the wing loading at 30.4 oz/sq ft, throw in a full fuel tank and you are nearly 34 oz.

This is typical of many ARF's that are lead sleds. It would be a great flying model if it's weight were in the 4 1/2lb. range.
