Default Re: 37% Ultimates

ultimatebipe,

How well do you trust your scale?
What other equipment do you have installed (battery size/type, smoke pump battery, etc...)?
It is fairly easy to add a couple grams here, an ounce or two there, and end up with two or three extra pounds.
However, 34lbs with that engine seems very high.
On another note, I personally do not obsess over measurements or numbers: if my plane flies well, I don't really care to know what it weighs: I just go out and have lots of fun with it.
