Align F-16 350 weight?

94ZA4 · Jan 17, 2005, 06:53 AM

I just got my Align F-16 350 version in on Saturday. The build is almost complete. It looks like the flying weight is going to be about 13-14 OZ. I do not use Lipos, so I had to modify the battery box to fit a 8 cell 850 MIh AAA pack. Is this going to be too heavy for this direct drive 300 motor that comes with it?

Anyone else know what their flying weight is on this plane?

No pics yet, I can take some though and publish them tonight. I painted it a Pewter Metalic Grey. Looks realy nice, although I think that the wings are a little longer than scale. Looks a little funny, not quite like an F-16, but close. It came with plastic missles that were made to hold the carbon rod to the wing, but i glued the rod on so I put the missles on the wing tips, makes it more real looking, I just hope they don't rip off.

I bought it from Ed at Flytosky.net. $42 plus shipping. A nice plane altogether, but a little smaller than I thought it would be.

Hi 94ZA4

I've a F-160 350 too. The flying weight of my F-16 is about 350g 12.4 OZ.
I use a 3 cell 1200mah Lipos. Himax 2015 4100 BL motor GWS 4025 pro.
The plane go very fast.
One more point. This plane is very sensitive to the CG. The 29mm from
the carbon rod. That's not correct for the new wings (The new wings has a
red dot sticker on it). The CG is about 35mm-45mm from the carbon rod.
Have a nice flying.
