It isn't determined by weight, but rather by motor and prop size. Of course you'll want to keep the plane as light as possible to 3D well though. There's a VPP setup for giant scale planes with DA100 gas engines which shows that a 10oz weight is certainly not the limit. I plan to build or buy a VPP setup for a 14oz plane.

My RCUnivers Bipe is about 13 oz. it can stop nose down but can't go up inverted. This is with the Great Planes V-Pich, butt I got the e-flite set up and going to try it with the same plane, will see how it go.
