LT-40, All-Up-Weight ???
I'm nearing completion of my LT-40. Current weight is about 7.5 pounds.
I haven't covered it yet. I'm waiting on the radio (new 2.4 Futaba.. woohoo!) before I finish balancing it, then cover it.
Anyway.. I'm guessing I'll be lucky if I get final weight in at under 8 lbs. There are things I built into that added weight. But I didn't know any better at the time, and I can't really fix them at this point.
I've converted it to electric. I have a lot of batteries in it. I can cut the number of batteries in half, that'd save me nearly one full pound.
So... Those of you that have flying LT-40s, could you tell me what your plane's flying weight???
Thanks in advance,
Lyndon
