I could see a whole line of Super Light kits coming .Sixteen/Eighteen pound 33% 260 that would fly fine with engines I already have !

Yeah, the build will start soon and it will be unfrigginbelievable.....to say the least.
If you want details, ask Bob....I will say this, the performance of this design will be unlike anything else this size. It will be on the deck and in your face.
