Default RE: How many cc's for 16lbs at 6100' elev for 3D TR's?

I am just concerned how a 96" wingspan plane is only weighing 11lbs. Sounds like it is built sparingly and will break apart. I just checked the website that has them for sale. $180 new? Dude, you get what you pay for.

11lbs plus engine=16lb? Nope...

11lb airframe, 5lb engine, exhaust. ignition, ignition and receiver batteries, fuel tank, servos, receiver, control horns, pushrods... Then weight loaded with fuel. add tailweight to counder the motor up front.

It adds up really fast.

Get a diffrent airframe. is my .02
