I guess it is a good weight, I am not familiar with what Ringmaster's weigh.
31.5 before paint, how about after??
I have heard that RM's are sensitive to weight to fly the pattern competitively. I think it would not make a difference for me though. So if it is "too heavy" for you, you can  send it here!

Hurry and get back on the E-Stiletto!!!!!
Please?

R,
Chris

Chris, A good Ringmaster weight is 25 oz or less with empty tank! Time you add paint Marcus is on target for a porker.  ;D

I think this is a good point to talk about, 'cause I had no clue to what the good weight is..
I've just sprayed the clear and will wait for it to dry then I'll weight the ship without the powertrain...
The Psycho Circus weight 31.1oz less fuel... But it flies great...
Only the battery I'm using is 7oz... Anyway, I want to build better ships, so any input is welcome...
Dang, I wish I could monokote...LOL...

The new Ringmaster looks great.  If it wasn't so far I would have you finishing mine.  I have learned that if a plane is a little on the hefty side, just fly it a little faster.
