<DIV>I ended up cutting a little over 1.5 inches off the length of the
tube. The difference in weight between the stock Impact tube and the PBG
was 1.6 ounces. I'm trying to get the plane to make weight with the TP
5300 batteries. I've only got about a half ounce to go.</DIV>
<DIV>Not very easy to do when you've ground on just about everything there is to
grind away. I'll make it easy enough, just got some reworking to
do....</DIV>

one....<BR>><BR>>Rex Lesher<BR><BR><BR>Hi Rex,<BR><BR>You're correct,
you and Gordon did get the last two I had in stock <BR>(but I am ordering some
more). The same tube fits the Abbra, and it <BR>is quite a bit lighter
than the tubes that come with the Impact and <BR>the Abbra.<BR><BR>Thx,
