Hi All,
OK, I'm on the empty weight part of the pre-planning. I searched the newsletter
archive for "empty weight" and found the lightest were just over 400lbs.
BUT, one KR2 (!) claimed an empty weight of 410lbs, with a turbo charger and
full electric system.
I even wonder if anyone even achieved Ken Rand's claimed 310lb empty weight?
(And is dynel lighter than the fiberglass which replaced it)
I feel this is a priority issue because my experience with my Avid, and others
has shown that the light ones fly really well with incredible climb rates and
short takeoffs.
