Lighter always flies better. Wingloading can be too light (use a smaller wing!). Electrics have there advantages as do glow......if glow is perceived to have an advantage in 5% of the windiest conditions.....there is the other 95% of the time when electric has the advantage? Yes, the rules would not seem to be fair in that glow can exceed 5KG at takeoff and electric can not. But I would never support a weight increase for electrics as they are clearly competitive now, and will be increasingly so as they continue to develop at a very rapid pace - giving electric a rules advantage would pretty much obselete current day glow setups. I would absolutely support a rule change stating 5KG takeoff weight for all aircraft (heck my glow stuff was 4.75KG at takeoff).....and that would have also have the effect of obsoleting most glow stuff.
