Aluminum NMP axles, aluminum bolts for the landing gear mounting.
Those 2 would likely be an ounce right there.<br>

ounces is a bunch to lose on this diet. I think you need to look
at losing wood in the fuselage. Cut holes in the firewall, cut holes in
the
bottom of the fuselage. You need to do this to get cooling air through
the
airframe anyway, Take out all the unneeded wood & foam you can get
to. The airframe
doesn’t have to be as robust with electric power. CF gear would save an
ounce or so. You may not get to 5KG but whatever you can get out will
make it
fly better.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">I’m
in the process of glassing and painting a Focus II. Why because this
was
my first attempt at glassing and painting and I thought this would be a
good
test bed. This will also be my first electric pattern plane. I knew
going in that making weight would be extra hard in my case. If I
don’t make weight I won’t be crushed but I want to give it my best
shot. The following weights are mostly estimates and I haven’t
settled on any of the equipment listed so I’m still open for
suggestions.
I will be flying intermediate and advanced next year.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
