Just a quick question for you collector types out there. Can you tell me the weight of a Veco 45 with needle? I'm starting a new classic plane and it originally had a Veco 45. I need to see how much, if any I may need to slice off the nose if the Veco is substantially lighter than the engine I'm planning to use.
Thanks for any information.

Randy, I don't know the weight but I bet the wing of the Supersonic Stunter will carry it just fine??????

H i Randy,
I didn't see this last night. I have one in C/L set up and I will weigh it tonight if no one comes up with the answer before then. Heavier than a ST G51 and a PA 51, IIRC.

Twelve ounces.

I agree with the 12. Mine came in at 11.9.

That's good news. The Magnum I have weighs 11.5. Probably why the nose is so outrageously long. There is a LOT of material behind the CG.
