Protos 500 cf vs plastic exact weight difference

[flint723]

I was never able to find the weight difference between the CF and plastic frames online so here it is.

Plastic 117.1g
CF: 143.4g

Difference: 26.3g

Wow! Almost a full ounce!

The tail case in the cf frame isn't there, which should add some weight (integrated in the plastic frame).

I guess you'd need to also add the bottom main shaft bearing block to the CF frame weight since that's also integrated into the plastic frame too,

The tail boom block is not integrated in the plastic frame, it stays on the boom and swaps over to the CF.

If you look close I do have the bottom main shaft bearing block installed in the CF frame.

Didn't knew that!
