[Ronald Van Putte]

Keith - If you move to the Master class, I would heartily recommend that you use an 8S pack when you're flying against me.

I'm in the process of detailing the design and probably won't commit until I have some basic airframe parts on the bench. An 8S-5000 looks to be about 8 oz lighter than a 10S-5000. Don't know if a 10S-4000 would be enough. Too many unknowns but probably worth a try in masters. FAI may be too demanding. How much more does it take on a windy day? 20%? ??
