Is that weight wet?
With PSRU and Prop?
I'm looking at a new aircraft type and trying to evaluate the possibility of the single in it. It currently flies with a Honda 80hp with firewall forward of 220 lbs, which includes a Rotax PSRU.
 
Hi George,
 
I would figure 240 lbs wet, with everything engine related, except the prop.  I've included the weight for everything I've added, including the EC-2 itself.  Note that this is with the RD-1C redrive, and stock REW housings, and I haven't made any attempt at all to reduce weight.  The goal was to set a baseline to work down from. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty
