My PassPort arrived today. It looks great and I think that it is pretty light. I don't have the old to compare against, but each wing panel weighed about 335 grams (under 12oz per panel without servos and linkages). The fuse was 1325g including the cowl and canopy. Talking with Todd Blose, he seemed to think that the wings would end up about 6 oz lighter than the prior version. That alone should make weight a non-issue, let alone if the fuse, gear, etc. are lighter as well.
Now if all the manufacturers would just provide wing panels with this kind of weight, there would not be any arguments about the weight rules.
