just for reference, (I could find it anywhere - had to ask the factory - you would think, wouldn't you, that anyone designing anything for aircraft would list the weight on the web site !!).



Well anyway its 13.5 pounds with the spinner(6.1kg).

Which means my Woodcomp is 6K2g heavier 913mm fwd of the datum which moves my c of g to just under 1.524 (60").

I am not sure exactly what it is you are quoting the weight of.  The numbers

you give seem wrong to me.



The weight of an Airmaster AP332 setup is 11.8Kg for the prop and 0.6Kg for

the controller (Total 12.3KG = 26.6Lb).  You will find this quoted on page 3

of the Airmaster brochure:-

I have one here, not yet on the aircraft, if you want me to check.

yes indeed, Carl is correct, sorry for only giving half the info. Moving on up from a ground adjustable warp drive to a woodcomp 3000/3W.
