Default Alternative to 1.6 FX
Rick P,

I have an FPE 2.4 in the same model and I still had to add nose weight with the servos in the tail, a guy in my club has a Fox 2.4 in his. My FPE with CH ignition is swinging a Zinger 20x8 at 7300 rpm and the model weighs 13 lbs dry. If you still end up adding nose weight with a gasser, I guess the weight gain of the gasser is a "Non-Issue". What does your's weigh with the 1.6?


BTW, Mine's still noseheavy as I'm still getting used to the plane. It could be closer to 12.5lbs when I move CG aft.
