What does your Extreme 330 weigh?
Mine weighs 5 lbs. and 13 ozs. It has an os61fx and JR 537 servos throughout. I'm just curious as the issue came up in another thread. Please note your motor type and size, servos and any other significant changes to the original.

OMG
hope your scale isn't accurate. This is just to much. I wonder why they are so heavy. I mean they are not light in the first place, but 6 lbs ? I had Hitec 625MG's on mine and a OS 46FX and final weight was 5 lbs 1 oz. That was with the heavy MG servos, and UT muffler. The Saito 72 shouldn't weigh much more then the 46.
How does it fly despite the weight ?

I don't have a very accurate scale at the moment, (used an old fish weighing scale) but mine is showing just a fuzz under 5 lbs. with 475 servos on all the flight control surfaces, and a mini on the throttle in the nose.

4 pounds, 14 ozs, MDS .48 w/ standard muffler 537 servos all around, and 3 oz of lead on the front to get the CG at 5 inches.
measured using 20 lb kitchen scale -non digital- so i would give a plus or minus of two or three ozs.
OS .70 FS replacing the MDS (nothing wrong with the MDS, just need more thrust) this week , should be able to take the lead off the nose
take care
