COMPONENT WEIGHTS

.....In Quickie Newsletter 4, we asked builders, to report on weights for their finished components so that we could tabulate them and present them in a later issue.
.....The following weights are the averages derived from the responses todate:

54.5 lb.	Canard complete with control system, wheel pants, wheels, tires, and brakes.
30.0 lb.	Main wing complete with control system.
43.0 lb.	Basic fuselage complete with all bulkheads, fuel tank, and side consoles.
88.0 lb.	Engine, prop, all baffles, hoses, motor mount plate and mounts.
17.5 lb.	Aft fuselage after fuselage cut, includes fin, rudder, tailwheel, etc.

.....As we receive more detailed component weight breakdowns, these will be tabulated and presented also.
