I received my sv-11 arf today. Everything in the box comes out to 34.2 oz. That is the entire airframe with controls and landing gear and tires less power system. Mine will be getting an arrowind 2832 motor and 4S rhino 2700 mah pack. All up weight will be under 60 oz. Oh, cowl is carbon fiber layup.

Hey Bob,
Does this one include some newer hinges?  The ones that came with the ARC Cardinal were pretty decent.

The hinges are an improvement on what I have seen from Brodak before. No glitching in any that I have found. Very consistent. A little thicker than Durbro which in an arf with precut slots makes a lot of sense as the slot cutters are thicker than dubros.

John

I apologize. I do feel very badly. But my shop finally got so I could not even walk thru it..... well, for 6 months. After that long I finally decided that I did have to clean it up so it is now as you see very managable. I compliment you on yours. y1 A neat shop is the sign of a sick mind. I have 4 workbenches. When I cannot find the same tool for 2 weeks I will clean up one. Tool always shows up and I'm set for a few months. As I have witnessed above, every 7 years I have to clean the entire thing so I can  move around. I've tried to capture it in pics but they do not do credit. Ask Rick Sawicki or Frank Carlisle. They have witnessed it.
