right 'G-Power' is totally different. I've ballasted both scale and pattern
airplanes to try to offset flight deficiencies and enhance performance in wind,
unsuccessfully. Each airplane / design seams to have an optimum weight usually
near the easy minimum build weight. The problems I've experienced were design
deficiencies (need to fire that guy). I think the real culprit is weight in the
extremities such as wing tips and tail. Heavy extremities require more energy
to check wind induced disruption as well as starting and stopping recovery
commands, crisp and rapid response. Centralized weight with or without ballast directly
contributes to the 'feel' of the airplane in the air. </span></font></span><span

    IMO, there is no advantage to either in flight. I world class flyer could

    <br>
    For those that think the size would increase with a weight change, then go
    to a takeoff weight rule. I doubt it would happen then. <br>

    not a high tech guy<br>
    and fly pattern on the cheap. This is still mostly about flying and<br>
    considering my flying ability I don't feel I can buy enough points at any<br>
    price to justify it, besides I like to build. I fly a home made 1.20 size<br>
    72&quot; wood airplane around 9 pounds with maybe an all up cost of about
    $500<br>
    (excellent pattern trainer in all classes).<br>
    I might be able to make weight with a 2 ci glow now. I just thought that if<br>
    the weight limit was removed we would see 12-14 pound airplanes with big
    gas<br>
    burners (IMAC crossover) and I would probably indulge, and yes a single 2m<br>
    wing will easily carry the weight of a 50 cc but what about a DA 100? Twins<br>
    run smooth.<br>
    The real cost is traveling in both time away from home and $$, even for us<br>
    non-competitive old guys, always has been, but I can't kick the habit.<br>
    Besides pattern fliers make good friends.<br>
    If I wasn't flying pattern I would be flying IMAC. Probably will anyway.<br>

    Monoplanes are at 74&quot; span now, and about 900 squares because that is
    where<br>
    the current schedules have pushed the designs to.&nbsp; The wings don't
    need to<br>
    be any bigger for the 11 lb weight limit.&nbsp; But at 74&quot; and 900
    squares, there<br>
    is plenty of room to grow the monoplane bigger if the weight limit is<br>
    increased.<br>
    <br>
    The bottom line doesn't change - bigger bipe, bigger monoplane, bigger any<br>
    plane will increase costs.<br>
    <br>
    If you think pattern needs more cost and complexity, whether it be biplanes<br>
    or monoplanes, submit a proposal.<br>

    &lt;96 db, &lt;2M, &lt;11 lbs, and it is legal.&nbsp; Your challenge is to

    Interesting discussion. I always felt the weight limit replaced the<br>
    displacement limit prevent the use of very large engines.<br>
    <br>
    Remove it now and we will see DA-50 or larger biplanes. I have wanted to<br>
    build one for a long time.<br>
    <br>
    Bring it on.<br>
