Rusty,

I would be happy to get down = to Tracy's=20 PSRU weight. It's pretty hard to beat the weight of plain=20 bearings.
That's about as light as one could get = with gear=20 drive, a chain or belt might be lighter.
By my figuring the one rotor with PSRU = will be=20 about 280 to 300 lbs, may be a little less if your really stingy - I = don't know=20 if I'd be too stingy with the oil though.
