I feel confident I can build an 8S E-powered option-160 under 10 lb. 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.
