around. I feel confident I can build an 8S E-powered option-160 under 10 lb.
I&#39;m in the process of detailing the design and probably won&#39;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&#39;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%? ??</span></font></span></p>
