ORIGINAL: flt lt hurdy

11oz lead in the nose to balance her?? AUW 9.25 lbs EEK!!!!! (err..how much does everyone else's weigh?? )

Got an OS 61 fx in it and have a Carbon Copy carbon fibre u/c... gonna be flying Lurleen Lumpkin sooooon....

Anyone else got a heavyweight kitty??

Sounds a little odd. Mine has 3/16 wire fixed gear, O.S. 55AX with stock muffler, 5-cell battery just behind the nose gear former. AUW is 7 lbs. 3 oz . Even with the 61FX you shouldn't be that heavy. The 61FX is about 5 oz. heavier than the 55AX which should translate to just a couple of ounces of lead all the way in the nose. Not sure why you're so out of balance to need that extra 11 oz.
