Steve,
Mine is at 24 pounds and 2 ounces. I'm running a 3W-80 TOC (twin) and have some fairly heavy NiMh batteries. You'd have to trim a bunch off if you are going to run that motor even if you've put it on the C&H diet. I just happened to get lucky and get a light airframe out of the box. (Some fellow over in China just happened to grab some light parts all the way around when he was building this one!) I'm also using a single 8611A on the rudder that saved a little bit of weight. Until I got through the break-in process with the Lawnboy ashless oil, the 3-Dub was not a real barn-burner. When I switched to synthetic and leaned the needles I finally got a lot of get up and go out of it. The vertical is really good and the pop out of a hover is excellent. Not 100 or 106 crazy but it gets with the program.
