Default RE: F27 STRYKER Part 7 : The Basics To The Darkest of Dark

In level flight, the quick answer is no. In my thinking, it will only affect speed (in level flight) if the power required to reach max speed (with added weight) is unattainable if the thrust required cannot be met due to overloaded power systems ie... battery, motor, esc. Thats an extreme example I cant personnly see anyone putting a car battery on a stryker. (to make a far fetched analogy) I'm sure there is a better way to word this, but I'm hungry and need to go fly before I have to go to work.
