Quad weights and measures

Post by Tony »

I'm curious of what everyone's quad weight is, so I'd like to know everyone's weight, I know some of you have already posted pics of your weight, so it's simple to put it altogether in here

Machos gracios (is that Spanish for thanks) lol

Yours is a fair bit heavier than mine then Kev unladen.... I've got a tiny little vtx on, but it seems ok so far

Yeah mine is a bit of a porker, but it has the bigger 2204 motors, receiver with sat, Bluetooth module, and don't forget mine is a 280mm frame, so it is gonna be a bit heavier,

Very true Kev, I only put 2200 lipos on so that boosts my weight up quite a bit...

Yeah thanks Graham, I've only got one 1500 lipo and when that's on she's so much more responsive. But I have 7 2200's which keep her my kind of docile for now.... Lol
