[NSRCA-discussion] Weight

[Jay Marshall]

Why not have different weight limits for fuel and electric powered planes?
This could be changed as necessary to equalize the aircraft as technology
changes.

<96 db, <2M, <11 lbs, and it is legal.  Your challenge is to meet those
specs with whatever equipment you choose.

Raise any of those limits, and the cost and complexity of pattern goes up.
If you think what pattern needs is more cost and complexity, submit the
proposal.  And as Duane notes, the new breed of monoplanes will obsolete
your DA-50 Bipe.

Dave

DA-50's and larger biplanes very common.  Have at it.  :-)

Interesting discussion. I always felt the weight limit replaced the
displacement limit prevent the use of very large engines.

Remove it now and we will see DA-50 or larger biplanes. I have wanted to
build one for a long time.

Bring it on.
